On January 7, 2011, ISBE issued a statement informing CTE Administrators that ISBE would not longer be approving or funding adult programs. ISBE suggested that we work with ICCB. ICCB was not aware of this. Several CTE Administrators with adult programs had questions. On January 12, 2011, Mark Williams, CTE Division Administrator, emailed that he would be working on a response to our questions that we could share with all interested parties. To date this response has not been received. ISBE also arranged a meeting to be held on March 29, 2011 to discuss this issue. On March 28, 2011, the meeting was cancelled and has not been rescheduled. Ms. Stover attended a meeting at ICCB on August 11, 2011. This matter is still being researched.

New Clinical Site Sunrise Manor will be a new clinical site for the high school CNA students. On clinical days, students from nearby schools will drive to the Sunrise Manor for clinical. Lewis Memorial that has served as a clinical site for several years recently received a tag. IDPH does not allow us to use a facility that has a tag. 10 Year Building Improvement Plan Ms. Stover discussed the 10 Year Building Improvement Plan, as presented.
