Mahomet board discusses activity fees, tax funds

MAHOMET – Money was on the minds of Mahomet-Seymour school board members Tuesday, as most of their meeting discussion centered on the topic.

It came up when parent Sandra Nielsen presented the board with a chart of Mahomet-Seymour's sports and activities fees compared with fees of other districts in the area, including Blue Ridge, St. Joseph-Ogden and Monticello.
