The last round of budget hearings are this afternoon at 4pm.
An article in this morning's Telegram & Gazette local section points out that the education funding debate isn't quite settled:
But some advocacy groups contend that the city needs to increase its share of new monies for education to a level that is 102 percent of the current year. They contend that new city money in the budget approved for the public schools is only 100.5 percent of the so-called foundation budget.
Here's hoping the fight on this one isn't quite over. Not cutting is good. An increase is better. An increase close to what we asked for would be even better than that.
