other options that would have been much better:
1) Stop letting retirees to come back and "double dip"...paying people twice to do one job is just not smart.
2) Eliminate home and away sites for sports events.....use one site and cut bus travel in half.
3) Allow AD's to teach again, so they can stop paying two people to do the job that one can do.
4) cut back on any staff development that brings in out of county people and pays them well, pays for hotels and meals, etc..........
5) cut back on the insane amount of testing...eliminates tons of money spent on testing materials.
6) stop paying for AP exams for kids.
