Catoosa School Board Approves Job Cuts

Catoosa Public Schools will lay off seven staff members to deal with a budget shortfall.

Three administrator positions, including an elementary assistant principal, and four clerical jobs will be cut July 1 under a restructuring plan approved by the Catoosa Public Schools Board last night.

Superintendent Alicia O’Donnell said Catoosa is dealing with declining enrollment and not enough state funding.
