Claiborne Parish schools will eliminate 60 positions — the majority of them teachers — because of an anticipated budget shortfall next school year.

The School Board has approved layoffs, the elimination of unfilled positions and program cuts and changes. The move is aimed at trimming $2.4 million from the district’s $13 million budget.

About 40 of those are teaching positions. The others are paraprofessionals and bus drivers.
