The Taylorville School District is in the middle of doing some strategic planning. Part of that planning recently involved restructuring some bonds that will save the school district, according to Superintendent Dr. Chris Dougherty, close to one million dollars.   

Dr. Dougherty says that the school district also bonded for additional money so that they can take care of some work that needs to be done around the different school buildings. 

The district does have a prioritized list of what needs to be done at the different buildings. At the top of the list is to take care of a heating and cooling and a roofing issue at the Junior High School.

The Taylorville School District is going to do everything they can to stretch the dollars as far as they possibly can, according to Dr. Dougherty.
