Ogden School District forms plan to cope with shortfall

You can read the entire article by Nancy Van Valkenburg in the Standard-Examiner today at www.standard.net

Ogden district is dealing with a $2.3 million shortfall resulting from decreased funding by the Utah State Legislature. The cuts will come from a $200,000 cut to capital projects (buildings), a $400,000 cut to expenditures (which ones?), and withdrawl from the district's "rainy day fund" (surplus). Eugene Hart also said, "Money was not set aside for employee raises." (no steps again???)

Not very encouraging.
