HENDERSON, Ky. Henderson County Schools board members say many questions remain over the Supplemental School Year Program but reiterated that the school corporation would work to make sure students and their families were provided with everything they need to make a well-informed decision.
The board discussed the issue during its regular board meeting Monday evening. The program, created by the recent passing of Senate Bill 128, would allow students in grades kindergarten through 12 to opt for a do-over year in 2021-22, in light of disruptions to the current school year due to COVID-19.
Students who want to take advantage of the SSYP must fill out the proper request form by May 1. The form, along with a frequently-asked-questions document, is on the school corporation s website at henderson.kyschools.us/

The Board of Education Monday night unanimously approved a 2021-22 budget totaling $12.38 million with $11.016 million to be raised from taxes if voters endorse the spending plan at the polls on May 18.
To stay within the state-imposed cap, the district had to cut $24,579 in expenditures after learning that despite an increase in state aid over what it received in the current school year, it would not quite close the gap.
Business office personnel worked through the numbers and were able to cut back on planned expenditures for legal fees, fuel oil, chaperones and other student supervision, classroom supplies, special education and athletic competition fees, said Superintendent Brian Doelger, Ed.D.
