District 518 s administration building in Worthington.
WORTHINGTON Members of the District 518 school board spent most of a nearly two-hour work session Tuesday night discussing several options regarding the plans for the new community education building.
Former Shopko building
The most urgent decision the board needs to make is whether it wants to reconsider purchasing the Shopko building, Superintendent John Landgaard said. The building is still for sale, but if the district wants it, it needs to change course before the building plans are finalized.

ALTON The Alton School District, for the time being, is returning to some sense of normalcy.
In a letter to students and parent on Thursday, Alton Superintendent Kristie Baumgartner announced that the school district will provide in-person instruction five days a week starting Monday, March 15, the start of district’s 4th quarter.
“While we continue to monitor our regional and local COVID-19 metrics, the consistent and continued improvement of our community and school district health over the past month currently supports our plan to increase the number of days offered,” Baumgartner said.
