Bristol School Dept weighs program cuts to meet budget
Bristol School Committee plans to return a projected $100,000 surplus to town while seeking more funds to preserve next year’s planned programs. Acting Superintendent Reinholz states four million dollars from the town council requires deep cuts including Multi-Unit School, athletics, and night school. The panel previously trimmed $200,000 and now faces an additional $140,776 reduction to align with the town appropriation.
