The school board has proposed an option that could cut the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC), Plum TV Production, business education and family consumer sciences at the high school; and French, Spanish and computer instruction at the junior high. Officials also proposed that technology education at all schools be eliminated.

The school board is expected to vote on a preliminary budget tonight, May 22, at 7 p.m. at Oblock Junior High.
