OXNARD : District to Consider $2.8 Million in Cuts
The Oxnard school board at its meeting tonight will consider $2.8 million in cuts for the 1991-92 school year, including layoffs and slashing educational programs.
Two weeks ago, the board approved policies that would allow the district to lay off, demote, reassign or dismiss managers who have specialties that are not directly related to the classroom, such as purchasing, transportation or finance.
A shortfall in lottery funds and budget cuts by former Gov. George Deukmejian have strapped the district, which has more than 12,000 children enrolled in a year-round program.
