Twenty-nine part-time Santa Barbara Unified School District employees — mostly secretaries, teaching assistants, and curriculum specialists — have been “impacted by the current budget,” according to Assistant Superintendent Mitch Torina. The Board of Education approved the layoffs Tuesday evening. The laid-off employees could be brought back if and when the budget sees better days, Torina added.
