Superintendent Looking to Save $500,000

AJ:
Effective July 1, [Dr. Reza] Namin is eliminating
the director of student services, held by Tim Walker; the gifted and talented
coordinator, held by Kathy Legett; and the curriculum facilitator, held by
Cynthia Martin, as well as the assistant superintendent, Jan Breton. The
salaries for those positions total about $340,000. As of Jan. 1, Breton will
take over as interim transportation director when Penny Esposito, the current
director, retires. That move will save the department about $29,000. Namin said
he'll later consider his options for filling that position permanently in July.
Including an estimated savings of about $120,000 in benefits for the four
positions being eliminated, the department will realize total gains of about
$500,000.
