School Board Meeting To Include Budget Reduction Proposal

BOONE, Iowa---The Boone School Board made decisions on some $400,000 in budget reduction moves at their last meeting in April, and at the time indicated more may be required at the May meeting.  That will be held Tuesday afternoon and the matter is still on the agenda.  The proposal being discussed shows there are currently three unfilled positions at the High School level, Instrumental Music, Agriculture and Biology and a Senior High Art Instructor.  The Board would like to cut an additional $30,000 to $40,000 and could decide not to fill one of the positions to meet that amount.
