The Reporter: Vacaville Unified School District leaders consider increase in hiring

By Richard Bammer/ RBammer@TheReporter.com

For Vacaville Unified School District leaders, the financial fallout from Proposition 30 may include not only restoring some pay to teachers and other district employees but also hiring 16 new part-time teachers for the primary grades, to ease the impact of student-teacher ratios in excess of 30 to 1.

The governing board, after hearing updates on the 2012-13 budget and labor group contracts, mulled the possibility of the new hires during Thursday’s meeting while, at the same time, generally expressed support for restoring furlough days and some pay for employees, even as the 12,600-student district faces $4 million more in expenses than revenues during the current fiscal year.
