00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: If we had cuts to our school our children would suffer.

Speaker 2: That's what leadership that the witmen Hanson School District is

3
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 2: hoping to avoid, and they believe they can do so

4
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 2: even though there's still some two hundred and twenty five

5
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:14,680

10
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 3: good is that if we're not going to be able

11
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 3: to fill the staff.

12
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 2: The hope is the next round of cuts won't affect

14
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 2: consume turn into a reality.

15
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,440
