They will be unable do so until there Is a board directors with a quorum to on the resignations. Non-certified personnel of the district, including cooks, bus drivers, custodians and others, have been given 30-day notice that they may he without Jobs after July 1. This led to the rumor that they had been "fired," but this is not true. The step was taken, as it was two years ago when there was difficulty passing the budget, because the district is required by law to give 30 days notice. Should a budget not be passed by July 1, the district would not have oper ational funds available to pay the non-certified personnel, and tliis action, then, is a legal pre caution. If the budget is passed, as the employees were notified, they will be considered again for the positions they now hold.
