EPCHS's Board of Education is hosting a public forum on May 7 at 7 p.m. where they'll solicit community input regarding the District's 5-year capital projects plan.
With a stream of major projects coming to Evergreen Park Community High School over the next five years, District 231's board of education is inviting the community to join the conversation. The district is hosting a public forum on May 7 at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium soliciting community input regarding its 5-year capital projects plan. Supt. M. Elizabeth Hart said that this is the first time the district has held a public forum since she's been working in the district over the last 11 years. Major capital projects under consideration include: After the board presents the future capital projects, residents will have the chance to speak to the board at 2-minute intervals during the public comments section of the meeting.

Evergreen Park Community High School District 231 said it has a few capital projects could cost millions of dollars. Current needs include a new football field, new science labs and removing asbestos from the auditorium.
As a stakeholder of Evergreen Park Community High School District 231, what’s a greater priority? A new football field? Vamped up science labs? How about removing asbestos from the auditorium? Discussions of the district’s possible capital improvement projects began Thursday but are far from finished. The trouble is, board members don’t yet have all the facts in front of them.

The money, they said, could be drawn from the life-safety, operations and maintenance or working cash funds. Meanwhile, the extent…

Evergreen Park Elementary School District 124 and High School District 231 recently proposed tax levies for the 2011 fiscal year.
After passing the 2011 budget earlier this year, two Evergreen Park school districts recently proposed their plans for the percentage of local property tax bills they want to receive in the 2011 fiscal year. Evergreen Park Community High School District 231 proposed a 4.99 percent increase for the 2011 tax levy to “capture new growth that could fall on the tax bills” for residents, Superintendent M. Elizabeth Hart said in early December. The total levy requested was $14.8 million. Hart said the only major reduction the board chose was at 100 percent from the educational fund. “We don’t levy that much anymore in other funds,” she said. According to Hart, District 231 distributes “all (of the levy) in the educational fund and we reduce it …

The board meeting opened with a public hearing for the 2011-2012 budget adoption, and after approved it.
Unlike many other schools in Illinois that have been hit with budget woes, the Evergreen Park Community High School Board of Education approved a budget for the 2011-2012 school year without making cuts that would impact students’ education. To date, the school’s direct budgetary revenues amount to $17,187,167. This year they will spend $16,668,801 leaving a surplus of $518,366 for next school year. “We’ve had a surplus the last couple of years. We’ve tried to be fiscally conservative (by) projecting expenditures high and revenues low, so that we can come in under budget,” said Supt. M. Elizabeth Hart. And to make sure they don’t over spend, the board puts the brakes on spending on Mar. 1, anything after will have to wait until next year…
