		<description>Being a teacher in a neighboring district, this situation definitely sucks for DISD teachers.  In the district I teach for, we&#039;ve gotten alot of teachers in the past from DISD.  

For the teachers to get cut, I find it unfair, since they are not the ones that made this huge, ugly error in accounting.  I bet the person or dept that made this mega money blunder didn&#039;t lose their job.

As it is, many of these schools are already overloaded with students in 1 class.  If you cut teachers, that means that more students get put into already stuffed classrooms -- which means less personal interaction between student &amp; teacher.

I hope these teachers come out of this out on top and better than what they were treated by DISD in this situation.  Teachers, such as myself, are the people who get these kids prepared for the future.  It just shows that someone didn&#039;t look out for the kids, and obviously can&#039;t calculate.

It is going to be hard for DISD to ask for a bond package vote from residents after this humongous mistake in budgeting -- residents won&#039;t trust the district&#039;s idiot with their money.</description>
