Scottsdale school board reorganizes data processing department
The Scottsdale School Board voted to reorganize the Data Processing Department and outline future Cherokee Elementary School funding. Saving about 8,917 dollars, salaries drop from 116,767 to 107,850 by removing the top post and creating a Supervisor of Data Processing at 12,082 dollars for 1973-74. The board weighed education versus business use, debated readiness for educational input, and considered funding 650,000 dollars to finish Cherokee School with possible 10 and 20 cent levy elections to cover remaining costs.
