Taos School District Faces 1.7 Million Budget Gap
Taos Municipal School District confronts a 1.7 million dollar shortfall this fiscal year after state cuts. Superintendent Rod Weston may not rehire 37 first and second year employees, reopening some positions if the budget allows. TFUSE and district officials dispute claims that classroom funding was preserved, forecasting limited rehiring. A mid year 3.2 percent cut could be disastrous, and negotiations with TFUSE continue as an audit of the Special Education Department proceeds.
