More Layoffs in Flint School District

Members of the district school board in Flint, Michigan had more bad news to bring on Wednesday. After having already laid off 250 educators just a week ago, the board plans to pink slip an additional 15 administrators and 27 teachers.

Among the pool of school administrators are six principals.

The layoffs are a continued effort to bring the districts budgetary deficit into balance. The revenues are $15 million to $20 million below the projected costs for the 2010-2011 school year.

On a positive note, it is believed that some of the teachers will be eventually hired back. There was no public disclosure, however, as to how many and when these may occur.
