Episode Details

Pender County Schools faces a tight financial squeeze after landing just $1.3 million—far short of their $4 million ask—to maintain current operations. With the budget approved, officials admit tough cuts are likely unless funding catches up with staffing and service costs, while still aiming to keep class sizes manageable and avoid major disruptions. Meanwhile, a separate $6 million capital fund offers hope for long-term upgrades like building repairs, transportation, and tech investments as the district weighs priorities to navigate this challenging financial landscape.
