Liverpool, N. Syracuse School Districts to hold budget meetings

Liverpool, NY (YNN) - Two significant meetings that could determine the future of both the Liverpool and North Syracuse School Districts will take place Monday night.

Both districts have to make some severe budget cuts. The Liverpool School District's $130 million budget is proposing to cut 130 jobs and close two elementary school over the next two years. The Liverpool Board of Education will vote on the budget in full Monday night at 7 p.m. at the District Office.

The North Syracuse Board of Education will also hold a public hearing Monday night to discuss its budget cuts. The district now has a multi-million dollar deficit and is considering cutting more than 100 positions. There is also a chance of cutting freshman sports and elementary-level music education.

Tonight's meeting will be open for public feedback, and the district will vote on the budget next week. The meeting starts at 6:30 p.m. at the junior high school.
