Abstract:

Wake County’s schools are at the breaking point. The school system is struggling to cope with the growth the county has seen in recent years. The system does not have enough schools to meet student enrollment and the commissioners oppose new revenue sources which would raise money for the schools and scheduling changes which help ease the burden. Proposed details of a new school bond, the root of the problem, and what the county commissioners and school board believe should be done to solve the problem, are detailed.
