[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was in grad school (in education) in 2003, we looked at the budget of our respective school systems (it was a class of educators from many counties--Arlington, FCPS, DC, Montgomery, PG, Loudoun). At that time FCPS's was appx $2.2B. I am stunned that less than 20 years later, it is almost $4B. That is a staggering amount of money. PP is correct re: the amount which goes to the people that make the system run. In 2003, it was 85%. I am pleasantly surprised that that total has risen to almost 90%. There at least 100 instructional coaches in the county and most do not work with kids. I would absolutely get rid of these positions. I would like to see a citation for the claim "for every 2 people in the classroom, there is 1 that isn't". [/quote][/quote]
