Olean School District to Elminate 48 Jobs
Forty-eight employees of the Olean City School District may lose their jobs.
The school board voted for the job cuts last night, and had already suggested closing four schools in a cost-cutting measure.
The board had a $3.4 million budget gap going into this school year and is trying to bridge that gap.
The 48 jobs that will be eliminated are a combination of administrative, teacher and support staff positions and will result from both retirements and layoffs, and the number of jobs being eliminated may change.
Last month, the board decided that two elementary schools will close permanently at the end of this school year. By the 2015-16 school year, all students will be attending one elementary school.
