The Benicia Unified School District governing board has a busy night ahead.

As part of its full slate tonight, the board will hear a presentation from Assistant Superintendent Michael Gardner on a plan to reduce the number of classified, or non-teaching, positions.

The move is being made because of a reduction of some kinds of services for the 2015-16 school year, according to Gardner’s report to the board.

“With the uncertain funding of grants, categorical funding and the needs assessments changing for the District, Benicia Unified School District needs to reduce classified staffing for the 2015-16 school year to offset their losses in revenue,” the report said.
