70 full-time positions cut after Windsor’s public school board passes latest budget | CBC News
On Tuesday, the GECDSB unanimously approved a $462.9 million operating budget, which includes a deficit of about $930,000.
The budget will result in the loss of 70 full-time positions, according to the board. For trustee Gale Hatfield, that was the most worrying part of approving the latest budget.
“Anytime you pass a budget where there is a loss of jobs involved, it’s very hard because whatever job it is, … it affects kids in the classroom,” said Hatfield, adding she supported it because the board’s financial staff worked hard to balance the budget.
