Dayton SD 8 says staffing and operational cuts will accompany 2026–27 budget
Summary
Administration described a structural reset for 2026–27 involving reductions in force, reassignments, reorganization, use of attrition and salary freezes for administrators to limit impacts on students while reducing costs.
District administrators told the Budget Committee that the 2026–27 budget represents a structural reset, not a typical adjustment year, and that the changes will include reductions in force, staff reassignments, redistribution of duties, attrition and consolidation of services. Officials said they sought to minimize impacts on students by prioritizing retirements, resignations and reassignments where possible.
Administration identified district office support positions, supplemental contracts and extended-duty assignments among areas targeted for reductions, and reported that district administrators and the superintendent agreed to salary freezes for the 2026–27 school year as part of the cost-saving effort. The district said it prioritized protecting core classroom instruction, early literacy, English Language Development, special education and CTE pathways.
