There will be more dollars next year than this. In English, there are no cuts for FCPS.

To the teachers that report cuts, yes, classrooms are not the priority and they've been sacrificed for pet projects, but FCPS has more money each year.

Please people...don't fall for the hysteria.  Do the math. Really, look at actual numbers.

You again? You really need to stop posting this nonsense. Costs grow as years go by and currently Fairfax County is experiencing an enrollment growth as well. The "cuts" are what is provided per student, not in actual dollars, but in actual services per student. If you can't see that services are going down per student from year to year especially for our general education students, you are blind.[/quote]
