Richland-Bean Blooson reduces lost teaching jobs to 3, saves alternative school

ELLETTSVILLE — The Richland-Bean Blossom school board heard something Monday night not many boards making budget cuts hear.

Applause.

R-BB, which initially feared it might have to cut 17 teaching jobs, will actually lose only three while still cutting $735,524 from its calendar year 2010 general fund budget.
