Duluth Schools Face Major Budget Cuts

Duluth School Board braces for major cuts as they approve a budget facing a $4.2 million deficit, risking up to 48 staff positions. Superintendent John Magas revealed tech and insurance dominate spending, pushing toward digital books to save costs. Board member Kelly Eder warned this year’s cuts will directly impact students, following $12 million in prior reductions. The district now seeks public input on a potential tax hike via upcoming surveys — a decision the board vows to respect — or face another $14 million in cuts by 2028.
