School board approves budget cuts that include job loss but no school closings

Gadsden County School Board members unanimously voted to implement the general fund recommendations as presented by Superintendent Reginald James during last week’s board meeting.

The list did not include any school closings, as had been previously discussed during board workshops.

The recommendations were, along with the amount of savings to the general fund:

• Eliminate 20 positions to maximize class size and cut costs (savings of $800,000)

• Remove behavior specialist positions from general fund (savings of $283,000)
