Earlier this week the District 196 School Board took a first look at a proposed class that would blend classroom and online learning for some of the district’s most advanced students. The class is the first of its kind in the district, but if it goes forward we have a feeling it won’t be the last. Balancing the needs of students and the realities of education funding has never exactly been easy for school districts, but with the economy struggling and budgets tighter than ever it’s getting even tougher. The school board approved more than $15 million in budget adjustments in April, including the elimination of 144 classroom teaching positions. That tends to cut back on some options.
