2008-2009 School Year Budget Cuts

The Madera Unified School District held a workshop on Feb. 15 to inform staff and the community about budget reductions MUSD is facing in light of a state budget proposal that includes billions in cuts in K-12 education.

On Jan. 13, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger unveiled the state's budget proposal, which featured drastic across-the-board cuts to nearly every area that receives government funding. The trickle-down effect has an impact on school districts throughout the state. In the case of Madera Unified, the district is being forced to cut nearly $9 million from its 2008-09 operating budget as a result of the state's budget reductions.
