Show Notes

Fresno Unified School District faces a $136 million budget deficit, leading to the largest workforce reduction since the pandemic. The district sends layoff notices to 274 employees, including 84 teachers and 190 classified workers, cutting 64 empty positions. Declining enrollment and attendance drive the shortfall, with average daily attendance dipping below 60,000 students. Employees protest, arguing cuts target vital student support, leaving real people with bills and broken hearts. The positions hit worst include English learner help, counseling, and campus safety. The layoff process begins, with final decisions in June for next years budget.
