Teacher Reduction In Force Policies and Notices AGAIN

Here we go again folks.
The School Board's March 8th meeting agenda is now posted on the GCPS
website.
Oddly enough, there are no "enclosures" to view at this time.  I
suspect they will probably be added in the last final moments before
the meeting, as is typical of any issue of controversy.  The following
is a portion of the agenda:

It is imperative that we stand up to the BOS and the County and get
this budget funded.  There is simply no alternative and our CHILDREN
are the ones who will suffer the consequences.  We have spent
countless hours reviewing the budget, there just isn't anything
significant to cut for FY12.  We cannot afford lose any more teachers.

The next BOS meeting on the County budget is March 14th
The BOS Public Hearing on the County budget is March 29th,
Ther School Board meeting on RIF notices is March 8th at 7:00 @
Goochland High School Auditorium
Please Help Us Fund Your Schools!!
