Walnut budget hearing called disappointing says school chief
Walnut Community High School Superintendent Larry Eggleston called the annual budget hearing disappointing after a mixed session. He noted an $85,340 expenditure cut in the education fund for 1990, offset by an $82,775 revenue reduction, with three teaching positions eliminated and schedules adjusted to meet state mandates. He warned further revenue losses and uncertain future aid, citing declines in assessed valuation and pending tax measures.
