Rochester Schools Raise Pay, Report Cuts, and Blame Governor

Rochester Schools Raise Pay, Report Cuts, and Blame Governor [Michigan Capitol Confidential]
"The Oakland Press reported last week that Gov. Rick Snyder’s proposals regarding school funding would cut $11 million from Rochester Community Schools in 2011-12, citing district figures presented to the board of education.
However, the $11 million in “cuts” included – among other things – a loss of $4.6 million in federal dollars, the loss of $250,000 in rent from a church, and a reduction of $394,000 from a forecasted loss of 63 students.
None of these will be caused by the governor’s plan."
