South Portland School District Proposes Closing James O. Kaler Elementary School
The South Portland school leaders are recommending the closure of James O. Kaler Elementary School as part of the superintendents fiscal year twenty-seven budget plan. This move aims to restore financial stability while keeping property tax hikes under six percent. The proposed budget totals nearly seventy-six million dollars and calls for a twelve percent cut in staff, affecting about seventy jobs, including thirty teaching positions. The budget has been in the works for four months, and the next public workshop is set for March thirtieth. The focus remains on sustaining education for students despite these tough cuts.
