I'd say there is a good chance they won't. Could it get so bad that they will have too shift kids to another district? very possible.

Also the districts fund balance is over (2) million in the (red) yes I'd say they will close and shift the kids somewhere else. jmo.

I read the article. It is hard to believe that the district has fallen so far so quickly. It is even harder to believe that the administrators would accept a raise.

it`s hard to believe they were given raises before their contracts were up being the school district is in such financial distress.

Golly, I don't know, how about doing what any other entity does when you don't have freaking money?
At some point, it will become apparent to even the dimmest bulb, that you don't need to pay for 5 Administrators, or pay extra to a person who got a Masters, to teach a 5th grader.
This is EXACTLY what happens when you have no competition.

Sounds like Mr. Wilkinson may lose his job for not having the proper certificate. That would help out some what on finiances.

Pontiac and Ottawa only have 1 superintendent and Streator has 2 and they all have the same amount schools. So why do we need 2 if we get rid of the vice superintendent we can save $124,215 and how come ours superintendent is paid more then Ottawa or Pontiac.

the way the school is being run needs to be checked out by an outside source. why would you agree to give raises to people when there is a year left on their contract. the administrator had to know how badly the budget was if its in the red. its time to do more cutting in the administration building. maybe the administrator can turn out the lights at night before leaving school.

I would like to hear the board members reasoning for granting this raise.. Then we as voters in this district need a way to overturn this travesty and get rid of"impeach"those who seem to be doing things in their own best interests and not the districts.. I should add Fatheroftwo's input on the other thread about this is appreciated....
