Bristol Virginia City School Officials Are Trying To Work Through A Budget Shortfall Of 575-Thousand Dollars With The Proposed 2016 Spending Plan. The 25.7 Million Dollar Budget Is Out Of Balance And Has To Be Finalized By July 1st. In An Effort To Cut Spending, School Leaders Say Jobs May Have To Go. The Cuts Could Come Solely Through Teachers Who Are Retiring Or Leaving Or Layoffs. Educational Leaders Are Working Through The Shortfall To Find Other Ways To Save Money. A Spending Plan Is Expected To Be Presented In May.
