[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Here's a letter from CHristopher Rinkus at DCPS about the budget cuts to Wilson. The bottom line is that in order to fund more $ for at risk students, the per pupil funding was cut severely at Wilson. That is how DCPS came up with more money. You don't fix one problem by causing another. [/quote] That letter is pretty dense, but if I understand correctly, they over-funded middle schools last year and decided to make cuts elsewhere to "protect that investment". The cuts "elsewhere" include Wilson. I think all the talk about at-risk funding is a smokescreen being used to cover-up other irrational spending (such as over-funding middle schools). [/quote]
