Librarians. Custodians. Middle and high school teachers.
When Iowa school administrators have to cut their budgets, they hope they can delay getting some new textbooks, or require fewer professional development classes for staff.
But when there’s nothing else to cut from the general fund anymore, it has to get a little more personal… and difficult.
It’s jobs—it’s PEOPLE—that have to be eliminated. That’s what’s happening in Waterloo Community Schools. Because of what the superintendent calls “a perfect storm,” there are 60 people whose jobs will be cut this coming school year.
