Dr. Call said over the past few weeks the administration has been varifying certifcation documents of personnel throughout the school. With few exceptions, we are confident that we can place all the employees that were cut into teaching positions, he said. All school districts in the state have been riddled with budget reductions throughout this year. During the school year, Granite reduced its budget by $5.5 million. With this latest $3,913,697 cut, the district has reduced its budget more than $9.4 this year and next. But more budget cuts are forthcoming, accoding tQ Dr. Call.. Governor Bangerter said next year will be equally as bad as this year, Call said. There are no more funds coming into the schools next year. .
