Tremont Community Unit School District 702

What Tremont Community Unit School District 702 does

Tremont Community Unit School District 702 is a public K-12 school district organized under the Illinois School Code, serving students residing within the Tremont attendance area in Tazewell County, Illinois. The district operates three core schools — Tremont Grade School (K-4), Tremont Middle School (5-8), and Tremont High School (9-12) — along with the Office of Special Services, which provides individualized education programs and related therapies (speech, occupational, physical, social work, school psychology) to approximately 150 students ages 3-22. Governance is provided by a 7-member elected Board of Education serving staggered four-year terms, with Sean Berry serving as Superintendent since 2020.

The district operates a diversified educational technology stack sourced from third-party vendors, including TeacherEase for student information and gradebook, NWEA MAP for assessment, IXL for instruction, Moodle for learning management, Xello for career readiness, and MobileMind for staff professional development through the Turk University program. The district maintains SOPPA-compliant Data Privacy Agreements via the Student Data Privacy Consortium (SDPC) and complies with the Illinois Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). Supporting programs include the Turks Café food service, an E-Learning Plan for remote instruction during closures, the Tremont Education Foundation for fundraising, and a broad extracurricular portfolio spanning athletics, FFA, robotics, band, drama, and National Honor Society.

The district's revenue model is fundamentally different from a commercial enterprise. Primary funding flows through Illinois State Board of Education per-pupil allocations and local property taxes, which the district markets as among the lowest tax rates in the Tazewell County area. Secondary revenue includes food service transactions ($3.00-$3.50 per lunch), and a proposed 1% Tazewell County sales tax expected to generate approximately $1 million annually if approved by voters on November 3, 2026. The district's go-to-market is geographic enrollment within its attendance boundaries, with community engagement through school events, board meetings, PTO, and social media channels managed via the Apptegy platform.
