It's going to be an unhappy holiday season for some school district employees.
The school board voted today to lay off eight people whose jobs are at least partially funded by the construction program. Two other vacant positions are being eliminated.
It's the second round of what's expected to be three waves of cuts to construction program management.
Due to the slowdown in the construction program, the school board had voted in June to lay off eight people and eliminate 14 vacant positions.
The new wave of cuts today means that 32 of the 90 positions that had been in place before June will be gone.
The next round of cuts is expected in early 2010.

If this scenario continues then it's better as early as now to save for the rainy days. Most people would attune that some personal loans at some point is a good thing. Whether credit repair means trying to pay down debt, or trying to save money, it's all worth it. Maybe even squirrel away some cash for a rainy day, your future, retirement, or a college fund for the kids. Also, to ease the worries in the future.
