Two things people are chewing on over on R Lexington today, starting with some good news.
The Kentucky Theatre just dropped their summer classics lineup, and it's actually solid this year.
They've got everything from Indiana Jones to Lady and the Tramp, running May through August.
Nice mix of crowd-pleasers and deep cuts. Then we've got the ongoing school district mess.
Right, Superintendent Liggins announced he's taking a ten percent pay cut amid all those layoffs and budget problems.
Hold on, we've got someone calling in about this.
So he's cutting ten percent from his two hundred seventy-five thousand dollar salary, which honestly feels pretty negligible when you think about it.
Wait, that's his actual salary? Two hundred seventy-five thousand?
Yeah, so ten percent of that is what, twenty-seven grand? Still leaves him with a quarter million.
I mean, it's something, but when teachers are getting laid off.
Folks on the thread are saying this should've happened months ago, before the staff cuts were announced.
That's what the neighborhood's talking about this Friday afternoon.
