The board voted 5-0 to eliminate six bus driver jobs and one lead mechanic post, and one part-time “certificated” – faculty or other teaching support – position for a total savings of $340,134 as part of the district’s Fiscal Stabilization Plan.

Also Tuesday night the school board approved a resolution in favor of “Week of the Employee,” honoring OVSD certificated, classified and administrative staff.
