[quote=Anonymous]In spite of the poorly phrased subject line, the point is that the cuts are inexcusable and touch schools in all Wards with Highest overall enrollment changes noted in Wards 3 and 4 and greatest enrollment decrease in Ward 8.

Of the schools in each Ward the following number of schools are receiving cuts.

Ward 1 4/8
Ward 2 7/10
Ward 3 7/10 (with MacArthur being the 11th school in this Ward)
Ward 4 11/18
Ward 5 5/13
Ward 6 11/19
Ward 7 9/18
Ward 8 10/20

While many school have been assigned cuts at over 5% of their present budgets, Alice Deal MS received the highest dollar figure cut at $827,700. High schools received the largest increases at Coolidge 5.7 million, Jackson-Reed 3.2 million, Dunbar 3.1, Eastern 2.6, And Roosevelt 2.4.

Lastly Jackson-Reed remains the largest public school in DC with 2192 students and a budget of 28,900,000, followed by
CHEC at 1611 with a budget of 28,500,000, Deal MS at 1402 with a budget of 15,900,000 and Coolidge HS at 1116 with a budget of 21,200,000.
