The Illinois High School Association (IHSA) Board of Directors met for their March meeting on Saturday, March 17, 2018, at the Pere Marquette in Peoria. The Board acted on two action items during the regularly scheduled meeting.


ACTION ITEMS
1. The Board approved a recommendation to approve the Global School Access Program, a program for international students, to participate in interscholastic competition at Arlington Heights (St. Viator).

2. The Board approved a recommendation to approve a schedule change for the 2018 IHSA Drama/Group Interpretation State Finals. The Peoria Civic Center allows for more than one group interpretation venue at a time which allowed a timing schedule to be different than the previous schedule posted in the terms and conditions.
