[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suspect that a lot of the "extra" money at the poorer schools is due to additional federal funds. I'm not sure if the Free and Reduced Lunch funds (federal), ELL instruction (also federal), Special Education funds (is that federal?) are included. Is there any Title I in high school? That is definitely federal funding. However, special programs like Academies would also bring extra funds to the school. So, I don't think FCPS is shorting the schools in wealthier areas like Langley. But, if the Langley parents are upset about paying more taxes and getting less, I understand that there is a school that is very close to many of the families that receives far more funds.[/quote] Schools like Langley receive fewer state/local funds and fewer federal funds, but the bigger difference is in the amount of state/local funds received. You can confirm this by looking at the VDOE school profiles. [/quote]
