When the Effingham Unit 40 School District made plans for the school year in the midst of the pandemic, they made accommodations for both in-class and remote learning students.
School officials were aware that some remote learning students could end up struggling. That has proved to be the case, and Unit 40 Superintendent Mark Doan told the Board Monday night that steps need to be taken to get the struggling students back into the classroom.
Doan said they can't continue to let the struggling students "dig a hole; if it continues, eventually they'll quit."
