Schwarzenhacker Suggests Huge Education Cuts

by The Editors on January 22, 2008

With a “projected $14 billion budget shortfall over the next 18 months” Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is suggesting slashing funding to most state agencies, according to a story in the North County Times. Carlsbadistan educators are not happy:

Carlsbad Superintendent John Roach called the governor’s command for across-the-board cuts “cowardly, lazy and thoughtless. . . When a governor proposes an across-the-board cut, he’s taking what work should be his and giving it to others,” Roach said Thursday. “Slashing everyone equally doesn’t take any real thought.”

The cuts will mean Carlsbad Unified School district will need to cut $4.3 million. That’s not cool.
