...Among the cuts approved Tuesday were Montgomery County Public Schools ($9.7 million)...
Montgomery County Public Schools Superintendent Jerry D. Weast presented his own plan for about $9.9 million in cuts in fiscal 2010 — part of Leggett's $30 million spending reduction plan.
School system cuts to textbooks and instructional supplies ($1.5 million), prior restrictions placed on administration salaries (at least $2.7 million), freezes on travel, equipment purchases and staff development ($1 million) and special education ($1.2 million) also were approved.
Weast also expects to save about $1.2 million in student transportation costs because of a drop in the price of diesel fuel.
