Illini Central purchased a golf simulator as part of the building addition to the school, and golf team members have been able to participate in open gyms by scheduling times with Coach Scott Francis. Sophomore Elayna Snyder came in early before school to work on her golf game in January, which would not have been possible before this investment in our students. Coach Francis says, "I'm extremely excited to have this for our golfers. I think it will drive a lot of excitement for the program, and I hope the extra practice pays off this fall!"
Illini Central is exploring the option of offering e-learning days instead of traditional emergency days. E-learning allows students to learn remotely from home or another remote location for five hours of instruction. If Illini Central were to implement an e-learning plan, this could be used instead of snow days that have to be made up at the end of the school year.
