Taylorville School District Board of Education met for their regular monthly meeting at the Taylorville High School Cafeteria Tuesday evening. 

The board heard from visitors, reviewed communications, and went over the consent agenda. 

This included the approval of minutes and the review and approval of claims. Included in the consent agenda, the board members approved the Treasurer’s Report, all consideration of personnel, and any overnight trips. 

The board also approved three ordinances relating to its bond structuring under old business. 

Under new business, Certified Public Accountant Adam Mathias presented the Fiscal Year 2022 School District Audit, which took about a half-hour to review. In short, Mathias says the district is in good fiscal shape. 

Dr. Dougherty presented her superintendent update. She urged student council leaders to encourage fellow students to pick up free hot breakfast and lunch. 

Dr. Dougherty also says enrollment numbers look good and the Illinois State Board of Education acknowledged the district met requirements for its special education programs. 

After the Superintendent Report, the board went into closed session to review student disciplinary cases. The board did not take any major action outside of those cases. 

The board of education’s next meeting is Tuesday, November 15th.
