Thirty-Five Retire From School District
Staff members leave with hundreds of years of experience.

Eight hundred ninety.
That's the combined years of experience leaving the Oak Creek-Franklin School district through retirements following the 2010-11 school year.
In all, 35 staff members are set to retire. That number is unusually high due to all the uncertainty over the state budget and the possible impact on teachers' pensions.
