CB schools contemplate mid-year budget cuts
COOS BAY — The faltering economy is forcing Oregon schools to cut their budgets midstream this year. Local school officials say it’s only going to get worse next year.
Coos Bay schools expect to lose $400,000 in revenue this year, after Gov. Ted Kulongoski ordered across-the-board cuts of 1.2 percent last month.
