The Flint Journal: Economic conditions affect jobs of teachers across county
GENESEE COUNTY, Michigan — Local districts are clinging to their teachers and trying to avoid layoffs as enrollment numbers and funding lag.
While the Flint School District is taking a big hit, laying off 257 teachers in April, most local school systems are trying to avoid cutting instructors.
In Flint, the layoffs were intended to help avoid a $20-million budget deficit. On June 17, the Flint Board of education called back 73 teachers.
