This was part of a letter that Dr.Perry sent out before the BOS voted for level funding.



6. Displacement of Teachers

We presented a proposed plan of consolidation to the School Board which detailed moving the smaller high schools into the larger high schools. We have attached the PowerPoint presentation for your review. In this plan, there would be approximately 29 classroom teachers displaced. It is our plan to ask our School Board and the Board of Supervisors to fund all current positions so that no one will lose a job this year. It is our hope that we can continue funding these positions and allow attrition and resignations to reduce our teaching force. If we can secure support from the Board of Supervisors, we will be able to maintain current instructional positions and allow those individuals to fill the vacancies created by future resignations/retirements. We will know more about this when we present the budget to the Board of Supervisors and then inform all staff members of what the budget will mean to our employment decisions within the division.


They got level funding but teachers and aides lost jobs.
