What will happen to Monrovia schools if the November tax measure should fail?
According to a report to be discussed at the School Board's June 27 meeting (agenda: http://goo.gl/5bZZh ) the district needs to be ready for that, so the board will consider a contingency plan, which proposes these possibilities:
Since the district is paid by the state on Average Daily Attendance, the district might increase its revenue by improving attendance, adding Saturday school for (I think) students to make up missed days, and trying to attract international students.
Also, it would have to cut. Possible cuts include "school closure," letting go up to 14 employees go, reducing use of materials, energy, and transportation, cutting board meetings to once a month, eliminating contributions to "secondary" athletics, and maximizing class size. http://goo.gl/rdFj4
