Catlin and Jamaica schools May Form Co-op

Full story: IllinoisHomepage.net

I'd rather stay at the small school and get to know everyone. Catlin and Jamaica schools may combine their junior high & high school classes after state money fails to come through. via IllinoisHomepage.net

I just happened along this, what seems to be the problem with them combining. I graduated Oakwood in 1985 and there was alot of talk after that about doing this with Oakwood involved. I live in Tennessee now and have for about 10 years. I think as far as getting noticed by colleges it seems like a no brainer to combine all these schools. I wish they would have done it back then. I know after I graduated diamond grade school, all the schools combined to make a middle school. From what I have heard that has helped, so why not combine the high schools.

It,s not the combineing of the schools that most tax payers have a problem with, but the bussing,and the need of a new facility will drive taxes out the roof! And the state help out? Forget it! Just ask an Oakwood home owner how the new school building has afected their taxes.
