It is highly disheartening to see the inequity of funding for Fiscal Year 2018 within The District of Columbia Public Schools. Below, is a list of initial high school funding allocations for the upcoming school year:
• Ballou -637.4K
• Anacostia -460.4K
• Eastern -446.7K
• Woodrow Wilson -340.4K
• Woodson -262.2K
• Roosevelt STAY -190.6
• Washington Metropolitan -180K
• Luke Moore Alternative -180.9K
• Ballou STAY -178.5K
• Dunbar -131.9K
• McKinley -87.3K
• Phelps -6.3K
• School Without Walls -2.6K
• Banneker +200.3K
• Coolidge +228.9K
• Ellington +620K
• Ron Brown +700.3K
• Roosevelt +773.9K
Although the city touts a $2.4 billion budget surplus, equalized distribution of public school funding is not deemed as a necessity. It is with extreme displeasure to see the “East of the River” high schools become the recipients of the largest budget cuts.
Yes, please fund.
Equality or bust!
Truly in need of you. I am in full support.
Equity for schools east of the river.
