District 227 board votes to close Rich East High School in Park Forest as part of consolidation plan
The Rich Township High School District 227 board voted 4-3 Tuesday to close Rich East High School in Park Forest.
The decision indicates the district plans to consolidate students into its two other high schools, Rich Central in Olympia Fields and Rich South in Richton Park. The district is considering spending up to $105 million to repair, renovate and expand the two remaining schools.
The vote to close Rich East also means the Cook County district serving about 2,900 students will no longer consider trying to acquire the former Lincoln-Way North High School building that closed in 2016 in Frankfort Township in Will County.
The Illinois Innovation Network (IIN), a group of hubs across the state that aims to boost Illinois’ economy through entrepreneurship, research and workforce development, announced the addition of nine new members today. IIN now has 15 hubs, including all of Illinois’ public universities and spans the entire state.
Led by the University of Illinois System, IIN launched last August with its first hubs at the three U of I System institutions and a fourth at the Discovery Partners Institute (DPI) in downtown Chicago. Northern Illinois University joined IIN in September and Peoria, which is home to a regional academic medical center, joined in December.
Governors State University will establish a Supply Chain Innovation Center and Business Incubator in University Park, Illinois. The center will provide faculty consulting to businesses and startups in Chicago’s southland region, as well as employee training and management development programs to assist in the creation of new businesses and the creation and retention of jobs. Building on the university’s existing partnerships with industry and non-profit organizations in the region, the center will help drive both local and regional economic development, including underserved communities in the region.
