Frankfort, KY – A reorganization of Kentucky's education department that would cut four top administrative positions is being proposed. Education Commissioner Terry Holliday says the reorganization is designed to make the agency more efficient and help it provide services more effectively. Department spokeswoman Lisa Gross says the move was spurred by budget cuts.
In addition, Holliday fired two other administrators last week as part of the reorganization. The General Assembly cut funding by 3 and a half percent in 2010-2011 for the Department of Education and other state agencies.
