Children should hear from a young age that they should learn to do something that provides a stable, reasonable income; that they are good at; that they think they will enjoy; and that they choose.

a little less that 12%. So it’s good to know that % of identified children in your district or at your charter school. That might be why there are not enough teachers at your school, or why the school may be reluctant to test your child. It’s also a good thing to remember the next time you vote.

disparities in funding for children based on their location. For example, Mitchell County spends about $12,600 per student a year. About 22% of their students qualify for SPED funding. By contrast, Chapel Hill Carboro Schools spends about $16,000 per student a year. Their SPED population is👇🏼

However, the total number of students funded is capped at 13% of the student population in a district or at an individual charter school. That means that districts or charters with over 13% of their students identified as needing services are actually receiving less per child. This creates 👇🏼

Folks who love/teach/care for SPED kids in NC, do you know how the funding works? It’s important to know so you can be a good advocate.

NC currently funds individual children at about $5300 per year. A portion of that amount is provided by the Federal Government, the rest from NC DPI budget 👇🏼
