The Saint Joseph School Board may have to make another round of budget cuts next year. Chief Financial Officer Janet Pullen says if all her projections are accurate additional cuts will be needed.

Pullen’s projections have pointed toward this problem for years. She says it came to a head last year when the district’s assessed valuation dropped for the first time. The $3-million in budget cuts approved by the school board Monday night eliminated two dozen positions. Human Resources Director Doug Flowers says all reductions will take place through attrition.
