County Schools establishes furloughs for all employees.
The School System was instructed by the Governor Tuesday, July
21, 2009, it must institute three furlough days for the 2009-10
school year. The furlough days must be non-compensated
days for all employees; therefore, employees may not take
vacation, sick, or personal leave on the designated furlough
days. As such, the
“Our goal is to comply with this state funding reduction initiative in a manner that will least affect the actual instructional days for our students,” says Superintendent Michael Surma. “This school year will continue to present significant financial challenges in both local and state funding as we continue our commitment to ensure educational success for each student.” The furlough
days are designated by the number of days in employees’
contractual agreements with all employees receiving a total of
three before December 31, 2009. Pending Board of Education
approval, Henry County Schools identified the following furlough
days for the upcoming school year.
