In California Governor Arnold has proposed drastic budget cuts in education. This will have a huge effect on the schools in San Diego county. Check out the sidebar of this article to see some of the proposed cuts of various school districts.
Some districts will be cutting programs like music and art, others will cut employees like nurses, and still others will be cutting teachers. San Diego City Schools has proposed cutting 630 classroom teachers.
Should we be concerned at CCHS? No one is talking about any funding problems for us (we don't get money from the government) but can the problems at public schools effect us? I have friends that work at public schools and , as far as I know, their jobs are safe so far. But I feel very fortunate to be working at CCHS right now.
What do you think?

I always considered teaching as an option for a career path. Does this mean I'd have to leave CA or go to a private school if I wanted to teach. What about the students. Isn't this just going to mean more crowded classrooms?
