Wake County Public School System - Budget Hearing

In Saturday’s News and Observer, it was stated that only 8 emails had been sent to the county commissioners to support fully funding the school board’s budget request. School leaders asked for a $29 million increase in county support for the coming year, but County Manager David Cooke has recommended an increase of only about $12 million.
