Any idea what will the next administration will do?
No one has any idea which of the harebrained ideas T put forward will become reality. Worrying in advance will not help fix them or help your mental health. Just wait in generalized anxiety like the rest of us.
+1
I also remind myself that most funding is congressionally mandated-- changing Title 1 and FARMs funding would require an act of Congress and it would hugely impact schools in red states.
I'm not NOT worried, but I try to worry in an informed way.
+2. 2026 would be a massive sea change in the House, more than likely.

Yeah, DC gets treated like a state. It doesn't get any more or less for being a federal district.

On page 23 of this Public Charter School Board report you can see the percent of local and federal funds that charter schools receive. It's 15% on average for federal funds.
https://dcpcsb.egnyte.com/dl/9rv9ElIrHO/FY_2022_Financial_Analysis_Report.pdf_
The report is for 2022 when schools had more federal money related to COVID relief (ESSER funds) so the percent of federal is higher than what it was before COVID and what it is likely to be going forward.
You can check out the 2019 report to see what the percentages were before the COVID relief/ESSER funds. For 2019, it was 7% on average for federal funds.

This is a hard question.

Look at table GA0-2. Note that's just DCPS, not charters, but it's an example. You can see charter table on GC0-2.
It also depends on how narrowly you define school budget. For example, are you counting what DPR spends on co-located rec centers? Teacher retirement? The PCSB itself, or just the schools it oversees? Adult Ed? Federal grants that schools apply for directly? There are many categories of spending.

How much of DC school budget DPS and DCPCS is funded federally vrs by our own local taxes etc?
Is the amount different for PrK vrs K-12?
How much of the special education budget is federal vrs locally funded?
I tried looking but I couldn't the answer, probably just looking in the wrong place.
