Local school leaders are expressing their frustrations over the rollout of the most recent data from the Illinois State Board of Education for school report cards.

Heyworth Schools Superintendent Dr. Lisa Taylor says ISBE released the data, then it was constantly changing or there were issues with the website for school administrators to access it.

Within the data itself, Dr. Taylor is watching closely the attendance rates. Schools across central Illinois continue to deal with attendance issues among their students as the impacts of the COVID response linger.

Dr. Talor points out the data has a lot to do with funding from the State of Illinois as well as designations that end up leading to more or fewer interventions. 

Dr. Taylor spoke to Regional Radio before the public release of the data for Heyworth Schools so she was not able to publicly comment on how her school had done in the past year.
