Bremen High School District 228 Attains Highest Financial Rating from ISBE

For the third year in a row Bremen High School District 228 has attained a designation of “Financial Recognition” from the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE). The Financial Recognition category is the highest category of financial strength.

ISBE rates school districts in one of four categories (highest to lowest) including: Financial Recognition, Financial Review, Early Warning, or Financial Watch. The number of districts earning ISBE’s top financial rating dropped again this year while those districts that are projected to deficit spend this school year increased to 550 (64.2%) of all districts. The ISBE information can be found at http://www.isbe.net/news/2015/mar19.htm.
