Teacher Layoffs. Closed-Down Buildings. Program Cuts: School district across the state are starting to make what just might be some of the toughest budgetary decisions they've ever had to make, thanks to the economy and state budget problems.
Buffalo schools are looking at a $50 million deficit. Superintendent James Williams says he'll use rainy day funds to cover $15-million, but that will still leave a $35-million gap.
"How do you get from 35-million to zero is a major challenge" says Williams who has hired a consultant to search for savings on the operations side of the budget.
