Budget $27,060 Meets Approval…Highest Budget in History Needed to Make Up for
Omissions in Repairs
The budget submitted by the Dare County Board of Education
to the Commissioners this week met their approval with little objection. It is
for $27,060 with an additional $5,000 tacked on to catch up with losses
resulting from the slashing of last year.
Chief among the items needed for 1948-49 are new roofs, and
paint, and desks, the latter for schools which are now using boxes. E.P. White
of the Board of Education stated publicly this week that in the schools of
his section fully 30 students are using makeshift desks.
Some of the repairs needed, as well as desks, will cost much
more than they would have cost last year, had the Board of Education had the
$5,000 to spend, that was slashed off the budget.
The complete amount needed to be set up for the coming year
is $32060, and is apportioned among the schools as follows:
