My district is talking about closing one of the elementary schools and letting 20 teachers go. I'm a permanent sub, so it's so frustrating to hear. Chat Icon

Mine is putting together a seniority list. They say they don't want to make cuts but they need the list just in case it comes down to that. I hope it doesn't

I don't think we will be losing staff, but our supply/book money won't increase.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a smartroom - but that's looking grim

i dont think we will have any midyear staff cuts, but we no longer have sub money or supply money. i doubt they will be paying teachers to score the ELA or Math tests, either. im sure we will be losing staff for the 09-10 school year though.Chat Icon
