Following a Wednesday morning meeting with the Shelbyville community at Porter Coffee, Shelbyville Central Schools Superintendent Dr. Matt Vance has announced another meeting on Sept. 30.
That meeting will take place at 6 p.m. at the SCS Administration Office at 1121 E. State Road 44. Attendees should enter through Door A6.
At Wednesday’s meeting, Dr. Vance provided an update on SCS facilities and discussed the financial challenges facing the corporation. He also shared information about the reductions and cost-saving measures the corporation has made over the past two years.
The corporation, according to Dr. Vance (photo), has made more than $2 million in cuts and savings over the past two years. The goal has been to find ways to reduce expenses while continuing to provide quality educational opportunities for students.
One of the corporation’s priorities, according to Dr. Vance, has been to avoid cutting staff whenever possible while protecting classroom sizes and maintaining the integrity of the classroom.
The discussion also provided an opportunity for community members to ask questions and learn more about the challenges and decisions facing Shelbyville Central Schools.
The school board has placed an operating referendum on the Nov. 3 ballot.
Community members are encouraged to learn about the proposal, and review the information provided by the school corporation by contacting Dr. Vance at mbvance@shelbycs.org or visit the SCS webpage.
The Sept. 30 meeting will provide another opportunity for community members to hear an update from Dr. Vance, ask questions, and learn more about SCS, its facilities, finances and the upcoming operating referendum.
