At
the February 2, 2009 School Board meeting, the Board approved an amended
Reduction In Force (RIF) policy. The Board amended this policy in response to
the recent announcement of the Governor's Proposed Budget in late December
2008 calling for drastic reductions in funding for public education. School
divisions across the Commonwealth have all moved to review and update their
existing RIF policies in response to the current economic climate.
