SCHOOLS From 1 said, "I think we'll have positions for everyone who did a good job." Most of the teachers who are not being reassigned immediately are those who have temporary or annual contracts with the school system, he said. Many of those on delayed reassignment probably will pick up jobs left vacant through attrition. Also, "there're a number of programs to be decided by the Legislature, like the writing enhancement program which we anticipate would require about 30 additional teachers," McKinney said. However, the Orange County Classroom Teachers Association filed grievances last week with the school board, charging that school administrators have not followed proper procedures in laying off the teachers for next fall. Jim Scaggs, school board negotiator, said he had not yet read the union grievances and could not respond to the charges.

The reduction in teaching positions should not have too much effect on academic programs, school officials said. At West Orange "we're reducing programs overall," said Principal Tony Krapf, whose school has 92 teachers. But most of the cutbacks, which will be minimal, "will probably be in the 10th-grade classes" because fewer students are entering from elementary school. At Apopka, which is projected to lose five of its 82 teaching positions, the curriculum will be "curtailed CAMPAIGN resigned due to an illness. Dawkins said he has not decided whether he will run for the seat.

In the race for the District 2 seat being vacated by two-term incumbent Allen Arthur, Republican Tom Dorman has collected the most in contributions. Dorman, an Apopka businessman and member of the county planning and zoning commission, reported total contributions of $12,800. Dorman said he will need "at least" $50,000 for his campaign. Democrat Henry W. Land, a retired Apopka businessman who served six terms in the Florida Legislature from 1952 to 1968, reported contributions of $6,855.

Land said he will need about $60,000 for his campaign, but said he hopes to raise the money through individual contributions, rather than fund-raising events. Phil Orr, a Realtor who lives in Apopka, also is seeking the District 2 seat. A Democrat, Orr said he does not know how much money he will need for his campaign. He reported contributions of $3,000, all of it from himself. Real estate agent Les White, seeking the District 2 seat as a Republican, has raised $500.

White, who won the 1978 District 2 Republican nomination but lost to Arthur in the general election, said he will need about $50,000 for his campaign. The next deadline for reporting campaign contributions is July 2. The District 2 and 4 seats are the only ones up for election this year.
