Grant School District 110

The Illinois State Board of Education voted to approve the financial plan it required Grant District 110 to submit to show how it will reduce deficits and improve financial reporting, internal controls and grant management.

Grant School District 110 failed to apply for several federal grants in recent years. The district was certified as being in "financial difficulty" in March by the Illinois' State Board of Education.

In fiscal year 2025, the district will reduce its expenditures by about $266,000 due to staff attrition and some students not being placed in out-of-district programs.

The Grant District 110's school board meeting was relocated from its usual setting in the school library to accommodate the crowd.

The Illinois State Board of Education found Grant Community Consolidated School District 110 as being in "financial difficulty" last week. The teachers' union says the superintendent should resign.
