[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t get it.  MCPS has a 3.2 billion dollar per annum budget.  According to their own charts 90% goes to salaries, healthcare and pensions.  They lost a ton of kids from their suboptimal performance in the pandemic.  Granted I understand why a young teacher is getting screwed - much harder gig - and they are funding older teachers who had better parental influence- and less ghost student issues from poverty in Central America.  But seriously it doesn’t add up.  Add a 10% increase for the schools?  Inflation - even at highest was 8 and change.  This is DOD level bloat…with no Inspector General to boot!  Glad I’m not funding the graft.[/quote]

The operating budget is separate from the capital budget. The main cost of education is personnel. That is normal. I am not sure what else you want them to spend it on.

And inflation has been 30% in the last 10 years and starting salaries have increased 16% in the same period. So they have some catching up to do. [/quote]
