[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$30 million deficit. The board voted yesterday to cut in response to this deficit.[/quote] Frederick and Howard Counties' schools have grappled with budget deficits for the coming year. Fairfax County Public Schools too: The Fairfax school district recently dropped proposed salary increases for the 2024-2025 school year from 6 percent to 4 percent after it received about [b]$89 million less[/b] from the county than it initially requested. https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2024/06/11/fairfax-county-schools-unionize-collective-bargaining/ People on this board like to hate on the board of education, but I can tell you that a lot of behind-the-scenes negotiations went on between the BOE members and the county council to limit the budget damage for MCPS to $30 million. [/quote] Lots of things mcps could cut without hurting students. Their spending is out of control. [/quote]
