North Mac Schools

What North Mac Schools does

North Mac Schools, formally North Mac Consolidated Unit School District #34, is an Illinois public K-12 school district serving approximately 971 students across the communities of Girard and Virden in Macoupin County. The district was formed in 2010 through the consolidation of the former Girard and Virden school districts and operates four schools: North Mac Elementary (grades K-2, Virden), North Mac Intermediate School (grades 3-5, Girard), North Mac Middle School (grades 6-8, Girard), and North Mac High School (grades 9-12, Virden). It is governed by an elected seven-member Board of Education and is currently conducting an externally facilitated superintendent search; the district mascot is the Panthers and its operating identity traces to predecessor schools dating to 1893.

The district's technology layer is a standard K-12 SaaS stack rather than proprietary infrastructure. Student information, online registration, and grade management run on Skyward/Qmlativ; district-wide parent communication, emergency alerts, and the district website/CMS are hosted on ParentSquare SmartSites with Microsoft 365 single sign-on through ClassLink. Online fee payments are processed via RevTrak, library catalogs via Follett Destiny, alumni and current-student transcripts via Parchment, and the district maintains a 1:1 student laptop program. Counseling services, athletics (via Snap! Mobile), driver's education, college scholarship programming, and McKinney-Vento homeless education services round out the operational footprint.

As a government state entity, the district does not operate a commercial revenue model. Funding flows from local property taxes (collected via annual EAV levies and Truth in Taxation hearings), per-pupil state aid, and federal grants including Title I, Title IX, and McKinney-Vento. Auxiliary fee revenue is collected online through RevTrak at modest levels ($25 class dues, $150 driver's education, $8 PE shirt), with the driver's education fee carrying a 35% collections surcharge if unpaid, and athletic facilities are available for community use under a published application and indemnification process. The North Mac Public Schools Foundation operates as an affiliated nonprofit supporting district students.
