The application for SRC Foundation dual credit scholarships for eligible high school students who want to begin earning college credit at Spoon River College is available, and the deadline is July 7.

Through these programs, students and their parents can benefit from discounts, scholarships, and Spoon River College’s already-low tuition rates. High schools who participate are Astoria, Bushnell, Canton, Cuba, Farmington, Havana, Lewistown, Macomb, Rushville, Spoon River Valley, V.I.T., and West Prairie. Home schooled students who reside within these school districts are also eligible to apply.

The SRC Foundation and Spoon River College offer a wide variety of scholarships each year. Scholarships may be for academic excellence or for talent or skill.

Posted by Sally Shields on | Comments Off on Spoon River College Receives Sport Opportunity Grant from the NJCAA Foundation for Cross-Country Program
Spoon River College has been selected to receive a $2,000 Sport Opportunity Grant from the NJCAA Foundation. The grant will assist in the development of the cross-country program, which will begin in the 2025 fall semester.
“We’re excited to announce and honored to receive a grant from the NJCAA Foundation that will help us to bring back cross-country,” said John Bassett, athletic director and head softball coach at Spoon River College. “The NJCAA continues to invest resources into schools to help with continued growth and expanded opportunities for student-athletes.”
“The NJCAA Foundation is excited to further support the growth of NJCAA member colleges and the sport programs they offer through the NJCAA Sport Opportunity Grant,” said Andrew Givens, NJCAA Foundation Executive Director. “The ability to provide this funding is a testament to the importance and growth of two-year collegiate athletics. The NJCAA Foundation looks forward to this initiative’s impact as NJCAA member colleges continue to create opportunities for student-athletes across the country.”
Chase Fisher, originally of Dixon, IL, will lead the new team. He brings coaching experience at both the high school and college level, and he credits his high school coach for inspiring him to pursue coaching. “I was lucky to be brought up through a program that was more of a family than a team, where everyone cared for each other, and those relationships last forever,” said Fisher, who a decade later still talks weekly with that coach. Fisher recently traveled to New York City for his USA Track and Field (USATF) certification, and has already recruited 15 incoming freshmen for the team.
“We are excited to bring back cross-country and to be adding track and the half marathon also, and excited that Coach Fisher will be leading it all,” Bassett said. “His experience will be an invaluable resource, and we look forward to a fun and competitive first season.”
Besides being a fun activity for students, studies have shown that student-athletes tend to perform better academically than their non-athlete peers due to the increased motivation and discipline they gain from participating in sports. Student-athletes are more likely to stay in school and graduate than those not participating in athletics.
Along with the new cross-country program, Spoon River College offers baseball, softball, both men’s and women’s basketball, volleyball, bowling, and E-sports, and is a member of the NJCAA. Current and prospective students who are interested in the being part of the cross-country team can call or email Bassett at 309-649-6303, john.bassett@src.edu, or Fisher at chase.fisher@src.edu.
Spoon River College is a two-year, public community college in West Central Illinois offering both transfer and career and workforce programs. With campuses and Community Outreach Offices in Canton and Macomb and Learning Centers in Havana and Rushville, Spoon River College serves students in a 1,566 square mile area including portions of Fulton, McDonough, Mason, Schuyler and Knox counties. Visit www.src.edu for more information.
The mission of the NJCAA Foundation is to enhance the NJCAA national organization, student-athletes, member colleges and local communities through financial support, scholarships, program initiatives and community service.

Posted by Sally Shields on | Comments Off on Mrs. Roper Romp Raises Funds for Spoon River College Havana Center Students
The first ever Mrs. Roper Romp fundraiser was held in downtown Havana on May 10, with a bevy of Mrs. Ropers and a few Stanleys (characters from the 70s sitcom Three’s Company) taking to the streets to raise scholarship funds for Havana students attending the Spoon River College Havana Center.
“We raised more than $1,900 at this new and fun event, and we are considering doing it again,” said Michelle Howe, Alumni/SRC Foundation coordinator. “We had over 80 people attend, the weather was perfect, and we all had a good time as we raised funds for our students.”
Former Havana mayor Brenda Stadsholt was the winner of the costume contest, and there were more than 100 winners during Bingo with Chris Boggs and Andruw Simmermaker DJ Services.
Participating businesses—who offered coupons and food/drink specials throughout the day—were the Stag Tap, Babes on Plum, Vic’s Place, Riverside Restaurant, The Blue Butterfly, Gisela’s House, Market Street Boutique, The Hang Up Boutique, and Manhattan Fields.
The bingo prizes were donated by Spoon River College, Spoon River College Community Outreach, Vickie Parry, Valerie Bell, Stephanie Howerter, Andrea Barbknecht, Front Porch Soap Co., and Vic’s Place.
The event was hosted by the Spoon River College Foundation, Spoon River College Community Outreach, and Andrea Thomson/Mason District Hospital.

Posted by Mitch Williams on | Comments Off on Important FAFSA Announcement Time Sensitive!
IMPORTANT FAFSA INFORMATION FOR INCOMING STUDENTS
The Illinois Student Assistance Commission is suspending the announcement of the 2025-2026 Monetary Award Program (MAP) grants for applicants whose initial 2025-2026 FAFSA ®is received by the FAFSA Processing System (FPS) or whose initial Alternative Application for Illinois Financial Aid (Alternative Application) is received by ISAC after THURSDAY, JUNE 5, 2025.
What does this mean?
While MAP Awards are being suspended at the end of the week, we encourage students who are contemplating college this fall to complete a FAFSA or, for qualifying students, the Alternative Application BY THURSDAY, JUNE 5, so they can be considered for this aid.
In addition, students who meet the eligibility requirements for federal Pell Grants can still receive that funding for fall, and there may be other ISAC grant and scholarship programs, as well as those provided by institutions, that continue to have funding available.
Posted by Sally Shields on | Comments Off on Spoon River College Receives $8,000 Grant from the Dollar General Literacy Foundation to Support Adult Literacy
Canton, Illinois – May 22, 2025 – The Dollar General Literacy Foundation (DGLF) recently awarded the [Spoon River College Adult Education Program] an $8,000 grant to support adult literacy. The funds are a part of a record-setting, one-day donation in the Foundation’s history of more than $13.2 million to support adult, family, and summer literacy programs in the 48 states in which Dollar General operates.
“We are incredibly honored to receive this grant from the Dollar General Literacy Foundation,” said Chad Murphy, Director of Adult Education at Spoon River College. “Their continued investment in adult literacy highlights the transformative power of education, not just for individuals, but for entire communities. This funding allows us to expand our reach, support more learners, and help adults build the skills they need to succeed academically, professionally, and personally.”
Through its Adult Education Program, Spoon River College helps individuals earn their Illinois High School Diploma and transition into college-level coursework. Preparation classes focus on reading, writing, social studies, science, and math—core subjects required to pass the GED exam and build a strong academic foundation. These free classes are offered at multiple times and locations across the college’s service area to accommodate diverse student needs.
“For over 30 years, the Foundation has been investing in literacy and basic education programs in our hometown communities,” shared Denine Torr, executive director of the Dollar General Literacy Foundation. “Today’s grant announcement is a celebration of our unwavering commitment to student and teacher success. We are grateful to all the grant recipients for their commitment to advancing education and helping students thrive.”
The Dollar General Literacy Foundation supports organizations that increase access to educational programming, stimulate and enable innovation in the delivery of educational instruction and inspire a love of reading. Each year, DGLF awards funds to nonprofit organizations, schools, and libraries within a 15-mile radius of a Dollar General store or distribution center to support adult, family, summer and youth literacy programs. The Foundation also offers a student referral program for individuals interested in learning how to read, speak English, or prepare for the high school equivalency exam. Referrals to a local organization that provides free literacy services are available online here or through referral cards found in the Learn to Read brochures that are available at the cash register of every Dollar General store.
The Foundation also plans to launch its sixth annual The Yellow Glasses Project campaign on July 21, 2025, in which customers can purchase yellow sunglasses at Dollar General stores for $2 each to benefit the DGLF.
About the Dollar General Literacy Foundation
The Dollar General Literacy Foundation is proud to support initiatives that help others improve their lives through literacy and education. Since 1993, the Foundation has awarded more than $271 million in grants to nonprofit organizations, helping more than 23 million individuals take their first steps toward literacy, a general education diploma or English proficiency. Each year, the Dollar General Literacy Foundation provides financial support to schools, nonprofit organizations and libraries within a 15-mile radius of Dollar General stores and distribution centers.

Posted by Sally Shields on | Comments Off on SRC Theatre Announces Season for 2025-2026
A storm at sea. A plot to usurp a throne. A new love. And a sorcerer on an island, commanding an army of faeries, with the fate of his enemies in his hands…
The Tempest, a revenge fantasy that ultimately takes a comic turn, and is the last play known to be entirely from William Shakespeare’s own pen. With many of the features of a tragedy in place at the start, The Tempest explores betrayal, redemption, mercy, and forgiveness—without asking whether it’s been earned. SRC Theatre’s Fall 2025 production of this “late romance” of Shakespeare’s will perform November 14-16.
“Nothing to be done.” Or is there?
Step into a world where time stands still, and anything—or nothing—can happen. In Waiting for Godot (1952), Samuel Beckett’s iconic tragicomedy, two vagabonds wait on a desolate road beneath a solitary tree for the mysterious Godot. Blending dark humor with poignant insight, Waiting for Godot is a theatrical landmark that redefined modern drama. This Spring 2026 production from SRC Theatre performs March 6-8.
For more information about the SRC Theatre Program, contact Douglas Okey at 309-649-6308 or Email Douglas Okey.
Spoon River College is a two-year, public community college in West Central Illinois, with campuses and Community Outreach Centers in Canton and Macomb, and Learning Centers in Havana and Rushville.
