Beaverton residents: How is the school budget affecting you or your children?

Last year, the Beaverton school district cut 300 teacher jobs as well as other resources from the budget. We're curious about how those cuts are playing out in public schools.

Do you have kids in Beaverton schools? What's different for your child or children this year? Teachers, what impacts have you seen in the classroom? Staff and administrators, what kinds of adjustments have you had to make in your job?
