Effingham, IL -(Effingham Radio)- The Effingham School Board held their regularly scheduled meeting today.
The amended budget hearing was first, followed by public comment to the board by Kesney Estrada.
The regular consent agenda was after the public comments, and part of the discussion centered around getting the Library Committee more funding. Board Member Robin Klosterman emphasized the need for more Library Budget funding, pointing out that the Early Learning Center doesn’t even have a library.
The Board also discussed the upcoming school year, and how the plan is to have 5-day, in-person learning from the beginning of the year. Superintendent Mark Doan also said that the County Health Department is in charge of quarantining students and staff, not the school.
