Kansas teachers faced with trimmed summer programs and tuition fees turned to farm labor and odd jobs to supplement pay. In Scott City, coaches John Zilla and Glenn O Neil worked on Lane County fields after school cuts, reflecting broader statewide cuts as per-student funding fell from 4400 to 4012.
