Beaumont ISD conservator demands more admin cuts

Texas Education Agency conservator Fred Shafer has directed Beaumont ISD Superintendent Timothy Chargois to draft a second list of administrative positions to be cut that would save the district more than $2 million.

The positions on the new list would be considered alongside administrative positions on Chargois' initial reduction in force list released last week.

Shafer sent an email to Chargois and the school board Wednesday, instructing the superintendent to use a personnel report generated by the district's financial consultants and presented at a previous board meeting for the layoff list.

The total savings for the district would be $2.4 million, according to a copy of the email provided to The Enterprise by trustee Mike Neil.
