The San Diego Unified School District Board of Education voted 3-1 Tuesday night to issue layoff notices to about 975 full- and part-time classified employees for the next fiscal year to help balance a budget deficit that could reach $122 million.
Notices would be issued to affected employees, which include library assistants, custodians and assistants at child development centers, by Sunday and would take effect when the new fiscal year begins.
“We acknowledge the negative impact of the loss of those positions, but we believe this must be done,” said Deputy Superintendent Phil Stover.
