A podcast of the entire meeting is available at http://cmsbears.podbean.com.
There were multiple issues discussed at this meeting, all of which revolved around how to reduce $407, 000 from the school's budget...or about 11% of the budget.
The most heavily discussed issues were a RIF (reduction in force) and bringing the transportation in-house. Both of these issues will be addressed at Monday's regular meeting, along with approval of the school's calendar which reflects a 4-day school week.
I will post the Alamogordo Daily News articles as they are published. The first one is here. The second article, covering the 4-day school week and transportation is here.
I strongly suggest that you listen to the podcasts!

Thank you for the keeping up with this. I will be at the meeting. I expect a lively discussion.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your podcast and for your articles in the Alamogordo Daily News. We, the parents, have not been informed in any way by the school or school board about major budget issues that the school board will vote on during the upcoming school board meeting. Thanks to you at least a few of us are better informed, now.
