The district plans two-stage reductions totaling 34 positions including 17 teachers and 15 support staff, plus the elimination of freshman sports and later the marching band and clubs if a May five-year levy fails. Levy would raise taxes about 227.50 annually for a 100000 home to fund 1.895 million.
