Cuts, Cont'd.: City School Leaders Struggle to Balance the Numbers from the Editorial Board of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"With her latest budget reductions, city schools superintendent Linda Lane continues to walk a fine line of cutting costs while hurting programs for children as little as possible. In the last year, she eliminated 217 central office jobs for $11 million in savings, and the school board agreed to close school buildings, including two high schools, and change assignment patterns, to save $29 million. But the district still has a $21 million deficit for 2012 and could run out of money by mid-2015."
