The Shelbyville Community School District is ready for another school year to begin.  The first day for students is this Thursday, August 14.  School community members can expect several aesthetic changes and new academic opportunities.  All of this has left administrators excited for the start of the new academic year. 

Families likely have already seen changes in the form of a new online registration system.  Superintendent Shane Schuricht says this has made the process much easier for everyone involved. 

Schuricht and other district leaders are also touting the results of a recent annual state-level survey of their teachers.  The survey shows overall high levels of job satisfaction. 

Kyle Ladd is the principal at Shelbyville High School.  That’s where several projects have taken place over the summer with the front area and gymnasium. 

The Illinois State Board of Education has recognized Shelbyville schools as being among the best academically in the state.  Ladd attributes this to the schools’ efforts to prepare students for what’s next.

Shane Schuricht and Kyle Ladd appeared as guests on the WTIM Shelbyville Morning Show.
