Thanks guys. A lot of districts do what is called a "RIF" where they lay off complete groups and then higher most back. This is an actual dismissal and people have been told "go find work." Luckily, I am tenured and it looks like, despite a push from one individual with too much power, my wife will be fine as well. Just a very rough day. My best friend's pregnant wife (I teach with both) was dismissed. Rough to see.
