The Santa Ana Unified school board passed a proposal that would lay off hundreds of employees from Orange County’s second-largest school district.
The school district passed the proposal in a 4-1 vote Thursday night. The school board will have to come back in January with a set plan on what layoffs would look like before going into effect.
Once the new plan is approved, layoff notices would go out almost immediately and staff members could be out of a job by March. The layoffs would include teachers, counselors, and social workers.
