As school sites begin the “Site Based Budgeting (SBB)” process, some sites will need to adjust staffing due to enrollment changes. At some sites, additional staff will be required. At others, staff may be “excessed” (involuntarily transferred) due to enrollment declines, and other limited reasons. The excessing process is not a lay off, just the method in which staff are allocated around the district to address enrollment changes. Staffing is accomplished via the spring “Post and Bid” process, where certificated staff bid on available positions. Find out more about excessing here, since the most recent contract modified some of the rules around how certificated staff are excessed.
