Springfield, Oregon, residents seek to recall three school board members over cuts to 27 teaching jobs amid budget woes.
Residents of Springfield, Oregon, have launched a recall effort against three Springfield School District board members over a January 12 vote to cut 27 teaching positions due to a $2.34 million budget shortfall.
The petitioners, including recent high school graduates, criticize the decision for prioritizing budget cuts over student and staff stability, citing lack of alternatives and insufficient public input.
The board defended the move, citing declining enrollment and statewide financial pressures.
The recall campaign requires 4,826 valid signatures per candidate by April 20 to trigger a special election, with student protests already underway.
