As a result of the Governor’s January budget proposal, and/or to operate at a level of efficiency for the 2019-20 school year, adjustments to the District budget of approximately two million dollars may be necessary. Therefore, we will need to reduce particular kinds of services.

According to Education Code, certificated employees need to be notified by March 15th of layoffs, even though the total effects of the drop in revenues will not be finalized until June or later. As a result, the district must plan for potential layoff decisions now, before funding levels are finalized.
