Lapeer - laid off 13 teachers, closing 1 school
Imlay City - laid off 8 teachers, 1 librarian, 1 dean
Dryden - laid off 2 teachers
North Branch - laid off 11 teachers, accepted 3 resignations
Almont - anticipating cuts of $400K, partly in personnel
(All districts mentioned cutting support personnel and most are making other cuts.)
This means getting a school job in Lapeer County is not a likely prospect for anyone for 2009-10. Why does this matter to me personally? Teaching is what I have been trained to do and the possibility of me going back to that full-time is still a very real one for next year. But not here, clearly.
So, where? If that is indeed the direction we are going....

That is a very important question, isn't it? I hope that by the time you have to make a decision, the choice(s) will be clearer!
