President Amavisca on the rough road for EGUSD
"2010 is expected to be one of the toughest years for the Elk Grove Unified School District (EGUSD).
The district must educate more than 62,000 students while facing a $42 million shortfall in a budget that will fund the schools beginning in July.
California’s budgetary woes still persist as the state is anticipating a projected $20 billion deficit and as the routine goes, public school districts must plan and adopt a budget based on guesses as to how much the state might fund them.
Entering this ordeal is the EGUSD’s board president for 2010, Jeanette Amavisca. Summer school was already slashed for the new year, and layoffs or position elimination is being considered for scores of teachers, counselors, librarians and vice principals."
