I disagree that the only thing left is sports arts and music....How about some of those union non teacher jobs....My son's HS had at least 3 secretaries in the main office one in guidance and God knows how many others in his HS alone Now multiply that by 3. I know that Gorton has at least 2 full time janitors if not more and and who knows how many at the elementary, and HS. In the age of computers and voice mail there is no need for so many admin employees.. As far as I am concerned Coaches do not get paid for the majority of thier time. Music and art....so eliminate a teacher rather than a secretary???? Yeah that makes sense. If enrollment is down close buildings the savings in utilities and repairs justifies the means....20-40 extra minutes on a bus ride 10 miles down the road doesn't justify keeping a building open. I am tired of this....my evaluation goes down and my taxes are still going up....what top level admin positions has the school department eliminated? NONE that I have heard of .....Are you telling me in a world of job consolidations that there are not any positions at admin level that can be consolidated and eliminated? I am tired of this and I know that I am not alone. My property evaluation goes down get my taxes have still increased....This is a joke...And this statement kills me

And, if the council and mayor fail to come up with the full school budget?

“That’s when we’ll have to sit down and look at areas that can be reduced,” said D’Agostino.

REALLY that is when you will look at it....You should have already looked at this. STop wasting time and energy...
