Abstract:
In 2004, three boards of county commissioners and their respective boards of education in Cabarrus, Iredell, and Moore Counties went to mediation to address disputes over county funding of public schools. Coplin and Stephens examine what happened in each case and provide information on this type of mediation since its inception in 1997. Suggestions are offered to help other boards in avoiding this approach to dealing with their budgetary differences.
