School districts will be receiving federal funding through the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. One of the requirements that districts must follow is to seek public comment on their plan for spending the funds. The ESSER III grant opens on July 1, 2021, and we have been planning diligently for months in preparation for its release. You are invited to attend the June 16, 2021 Board of Education meeting where you will hear more about the details planned to date. You may also make public comment at that time. The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 can be read here: https://5il.co/tvfk. A recently released ESSER FAQ can be found here: https://5il.co/tvfl. The district’s ESSER Draft Return to In Person Learning Plan that will be presented at the board meeting can be found here: https://5il.co/tvfj. We hope to see you at next week’s meeting! #br_u_knighted

A message from Sue McLaughlin, City Manager- The grand opening of the Farmer City Pool originally scheduled for Saturday May 29 has unfortunately been delayed. We are experiencing some minor issues with our new piping that should be completed in the next week or so. We are as disappointed as you that it will not open on time. We wish to thank our staff for all their hard work and the community for their patience. We look forward to opening our amazing “new” facility very soon. Thank you!!
