Budget battle shapes 1997 98 school plan and cuts
The board kept elementary magnet and Renzulli programs intact and preserved adult education with higher tuition. Ninth grade sports continue but athletic fees rise to 550 per student per sport. Outdoor School becomes day only. Four vocational support roles are eliminated while new positions exist. Budget increases 5.8 percent with added staff and a Deer Crossing school project. County commissioners redirected 83,000 to capital outlays, prompting board objections and concerns over funding levels for 1997 98.
