The 8th grade ELA department at Taylorville Jr. High recently received the Illinois Retired Teachers Association grant. Mrs. Alberssen, Mrs. Graves, and Ms. Cummins will use the grant money to purchase new novels for 8th grade students. Great job and the novel is "Touching Spirit Bear" for those interested. A very good read with lots of relevant connections for our TJHS scholars. Pic: L-R, Ms. Cummins, Mrs. Graves, Mrs. Alberssen, and Mr. Bruder
