CMS Facing More Layoffs
Up to 880 Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools employees, including 658 teachers, could lose their jobs under budget scenarios Superintendent Peter Gorman presented to the school board Wednesday.
Gorman and board members say they’ll also consider more drastic measures, such as closing underfilled schools and eliminating busing for magnet schools. Gorman said the anticipated 2010-11 cuts will be especially damaging because they’re piled onto layoffs and other cuts made this year.
