The WTIM High School Road Tour kicked off yesterday and got its start at Taylorville High School. Regional Radio News Reporter Leroy Kleimola spoke with many players over at THS and got the chance to sit down with Matt Hutchison, Taylorville High School's Principal.
An addition to the southeast corner of the high school is the new home for special education at THS. Hutchison says that these rooms house an apartment-style setting for students to learn and engage with life skills.
More additions include a dedicated conference room for a variety of needs and a mental health therapy room. There has been much rearranging and classes relocating, but the Tommy TV classroom studio is now set and Principal Hutchison is happy to have this valuable THS program settled.
Principal Hutchison spoke on the many opportunities presented to Taylorville High School students ranging from STEM to the Future Farmers of America, to video production, and the buildings trades program.
The WTIM High School Road Tour will be traveling to Pana High School on Thursday, January 11th, Shelbyville High School on Wednesday, January 17th, Morisonville High School on January 18th, to Central A&M High School on Tuesday, January 23rd, and Pawnee High School on Wednesday, January 24th.
