Those interested in seeing a presentation about Jackson Public School’s 2012-2013 budget can attend any of a number of meeting in the district’s schools.  JPS already announced an anticipated $2.7 million shortfall and has proposed eliminating 10 elementary school, two middle school and two high school teaching positions and cutting school supply funds by $25,000 to shave about a million off.  The district is hoping to explain the shortfall and get community input.  A community forum is set for 6:00 May 29 at Jackson High School.  Meetings for staff and parents are also set up at each JPS building.  The remainder of the schedule is:

May 22, 2:45 at the Middle School at Parkside and 3:45 at Dibble Elementary School

May 23, 3:45 at Northeast Elementary School

May 24, 2:45 at T.A. Wilson Academy and 4:00 at McCulloch Academy
