Jamestown (CSi) The Jamestown Public Schools is looking at options to reduce the 2014-15 budget deficit.

The school district anticipates a $800,000 budget deficit at the end of the fiscal year this summer and the $1.8 million shortfall following the 2014-15 school year.

The School Board’s Financial Task Force met with other members of the School Board Tuesday evening.

The task force is asking Superintendent Rob Lech to prepare three optional plans, which Lech calls, “worse, worse and worst.  “The entire list of options for revenue enhancements and reductions would offset the deficit by approximately $1.87 million by the end of the 2014-15 school year, and, some of those moves would require drastic restructuring of the current JPS system as well as major staff, program and other cuts.
