Teacher cutbacks concern parents in Montague
Posted by Bill van Asperen
Some parents in Montague have done their homework and say the province's latest teacher cuts are hitting their schools a lot harder than in other parts of PEI.
Shauna Mellish has a daughter in Grade Two at Montague Consolidated. She says of the 32 teaching positions being cut across the Island -- 10 per cent are coming from her school.

We also hear from the Superintendent of the English school board, Cynthia Fleet.
