[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Budgets increased by ~12% at a time staffing costs increased by 23%, so yes, the schools are being defunded. Part of the reason staffing costs aren't as well aligned is because the mayor refuses to sign timely contracts so personnel spending is hard to budget.[/quote] The math isn’t so simple. If, say, staffing costs are half of total costs, and other costs stay the same, the 12% budget increase covers the total cost increase. I’m not saying those are the facts, just that we need to know more before calling it a cut. [/quote]
