SYCAMORE – Sycamore School District 427 is following through with its plan to cut seven positions and reduce other staffing positions from full time to part time. The district’s school board approved the cuts during Tuesday’s closed session meeting.

The staff reductions are part of the district’s entire budget reduction plan, which was presented during the last several regular board meetings.

“This is just an ongoing effort to make sure we are being fiscally responsible,” District 427 Superintendent Kathy Countryman said.
