The Missouri education department has warned school districts to expect reduced state funding. This financial shortfall could lead to larger class sizes, school closures, and staff layoffs. St. Louis Public Schools faces a significant budget deficit for the third consecutive year. The district plans to eliminate 300 long-term substitute teaching positions. Other area districts are also considering closures and tax increases to address financial pressures.
