Poor Teachers :c

An outrageous amount of job cuts(over 1000) are going to be carried out by the end of this month. A news article explains AISD's plans to cut over 500 teachers. The plan apparently takes seniority into effect when making the teacher cuts, poor teachers. I feel bad for all the ambitious, relatively new, teachers in Austins Independent School District. Supposedly, the AISD wants to improve their systems efficiency but maintain the "High Quality Education" they offer. The information source, did not provide how much money will be saved from all of these cuts, but I assume it should be a lot. Seeing as the number of job cuts planned is so high, and so early in the year of 2011.
