Chippewa Falls schools are sending pink slips to eight people, but the superintendent says it could have been worse.
Superintendent Jeff Holmes says a wave of early retirements helped cushion the impact of a one-point-six-million-dollar hole in their budget. Not all eight people who are being let-go are teachers, though some are. Holmes says nothing is final yet. He said the budget could change dramatically before it’s finalized next month.
