A one-campus rural district spending down its reserves

Deficit spending in 2025-26; near-balanced main fund in 2026-27

Century Community Unit School District 100 serves about 330 students from one campus in Ullin, in Pulaski County at the southern tip of Illinois. A seven-member elected Board of Education meets monthly, usually on the third Monday at 6:00 p.m. Superintendent Landon Sommer also serves half-time as a principal. Most of the money comes from the state (about $2.66 million of the $4.08 million the main fund expects in 2026-27). In 2025-26 the district spent about $457,000 of its reserves.

Elected board

Seven members: President Wesley Anderson, Vice President Keith Clark, Secretary Christina Wright, Alma DeWitt, John Hannan, Rob Reichert and Treesa Sauerbrunn. Three or four seats are on the April 6, 2027 ballot.

Reserves

The Educational Fund balance is expected to fall from $2.13 million to $1.69 million over 2025-26, then hold at about $1.72 million in 2026-27.

Bus fund

The 2026-27 budget leaves the Transportation Fund with an estimated $5,260.

Staff

The state salary report lists 34 administrator and teacher positions in 2026, down from 36 in 2025.

Budget forms show plans, not results. The 2025-26 annual financial report is not in the collected records. Without the minutes, the board's reasons for these spending choices are unknown.
