Taos School District Budget Faces Major Cuts
United School Employees (TFUSE) protested a unilateral cut while Weston said an agreement would treat three snow and gas outage days as furlough days with no makeups. The board, hoping to negotiate next year, approved the measure unanimously pending TFUSE membership approval, noting the cuts are far worse than the 1983 recession. Budget hearings are set for May 18 and 24 with state filing due May 25.
