Enrollment up in Amboy schools

AMBOY – Several items of business were discussed at the Amboy Board of Education meeting on June 13. Superintendent Joshua Nichols reported that enrollment for the 2018-19 school year was up from the previous year, partly due to the addition of preschool. Enrollment last year rose to 737, compared to 692 the year before. He noted that even without counting the preschool students, overall enrollment had increased. Nichols said he sees the growth as a good sign and hopes the upward trend will continue.
