[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't see how using at-risk funding to pay for staff is misuse of funds.[/quote]

I also think every school should have a fully funded art and music teacher for ALL students.[/quote]

I'm the op and to me that is the biggest scandal.  I don't have (and most of us don't) the level of detail to see the actual budgets for the individual schools

DCPS quotes that all schools receive the same base allocation which is supposed to include special teachers

http://dcpsdatacenter.com/assets/docs/pdfs/fy19initialallocation_Amidon-Bowen%20ES.pdf  They get 3 arts teachers
http://dcpsdatacenter.com/assets/docs/pdfs/fy19initialallocation_Brent%20ES.pdf  The get 4.5 arts teachers

The discrepency is related to school size.  
All those funds are supposed to be from the general fund and not at-risk funds.  Parents and the article are claiming that's not true at Amidon Bowen and other schools.

I don't think you understand what people are saying, because what you wrote here does not make sense.  [/quote]
