District leaders warn these reductions will likely affect staff working directly with students, and they'll present specific proposals in November ahead of a final board vote in January.
   

• Express: MVWSD sets $8M budget cut target (mv-voice.com) — Mountain View Whisman School District is moving toward another $8 million in budget cuts on top of reductions approved earlier this year, a key issue for local families and staff.
