‘Not out of the woods’ with default budget Legal questions remain; 65 school employees still in limbo BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Voters rejected the school budget Tuesday in hopes that the higher default budget could lead to financial stability and keep the district out of any legal

battles, but school superintendent Carl Nelson is quick to caution that may not be the case. "We're not anywhere near out of the woods until we get a ruling from the (Attorney General's) Office," Nelson said Wednesday on the heels of the voting

portion of annual school meeting the day before. Voters on Tuesday rejected the school board's $33.3 million budget, opting instead for a default budget that is $190,000 more. see DEFAULT page 8
