School District to Talk Layoffs at Meeting

The agenda for Wednesday's upcoming school board meeting has two items that refer to a "reduction or discontinuance of service" in several areas.

Layoffs of educators and staff within the Monrovia Unified School District's K-12, adult education, regional occupational programs and pre-kindergarten programs could be considered at the Board of Education's meeting on Wednesday.

Two items on the board's agenda request that the board adopt a resolution that would "reduce or discontinue particular kinds of service" in the aforementioned areas at the end of the 2011-2012 school year.

About 42 full-time positions in K-12, adult education and regional occupational programs face elimination, along with 13 pre-kindergarten teachers (which the district adds up to 9.4 full-time positions).
