Board adopts Option 4 budget reductions, removes psychologist-intern cut from immediate actions
Summary
Trustees voted unanimously to adopt a package of budget reductions based on staff 'Option 4' but explicitly removed the psychologist intern from the immediate reduction list while staff will determine if the intern position can be retained given supervision and seniority rules.
The Bass Lake Joint Union Elementary governing board voted unanimously to implement a budget-reduction package largely following staff's Option 4, with one change: trustees removed the psychologist intern line item from the immediate cuts and asked staff to revisit whether the intern can be retained depending on seniority and whether a licensed psychologist will be able to supervise.
Chair moved the motion and the board completed a roll-call vote with all members responding "Aye." The motion directs staff to proceed with the reductions identified in Option 4 and to return with additional details about counseling alternatives, the feasibility of retaining an intern, and the personnel outcomes that seniority rules may require.
