The Atlanta school board Monday voted to reorganize the district's information technology division, despite objections from some community members. As a result of the reorganization, 31 positions will be abolished while 36 new positions will be created. Employees will have to reapply for their jobs and the new positions will begin this fall. District officials said the changes were overdue and necessary to update the department. The changes are cost-neutral according to officials.
