    Walton Public Schools to be cut $6 Million under the 2011 budget

    WJHG TV reported a $6 million cut to Walton County schools...that the reporter said school officials only learned about today...apparently similar cuts for Bay and Jackson Counties as well.

    Not good for our students IMO.

    If that is true I hate to see things like this happen. If anyone needs any incentive to stop this, watch an episode of The Tonight Show where they do "Jay Walking". It's things like these budget cuts that are going to lead to more people walking around with out any basic knowledge.

    So we are cutting $6 million from our schools and proposing a 1/2 million pedestrian bridge at the same time.

    Anyone else find this crazy?

    I can't find any information on this, the only links are a blurb on WJHG's site and this thread.
