[quote=Anonymous]Heard this story today on the radio -- it's about time there was a strategy to advocate to members of the General Assembly in the rest of Virginia. It really is not just about Fairfax County. https://wamu.org/news/15/12/14/urban_coalition_in_virginia_presses_state_government_to_meaningfully_increase_education_funding [quote]Last week, leaders from 130 local governments, school divisions and business leaders from across Virginia met in Fredericksburg to plot strategy. Part of that strategy is coordinating a message, and the group is seizing on two particular data points. One is that the commonwealth has reduced its share of funding for public education by more than $1 billion since 2009. Another is that state funding on a per pupil inflation adjusted basis has decreased from $4,275 per student in 2009 to $3,655 per student in 2015.[/quote][/quote]
