Commissioners deny funding for teachers
Frederick County commissioners voted 4 1 against a 1 006 million school board request to fund teacher raises. The meeting in Winchester Hall included school board president Marvin Anthony appealing for over a million dollars to fund raises and an additional 1 08 million for 2 percent increases. Budget supervisor Walter Brilhart cited existing funds and the need for classroom teachers’ negotiated raises. Commissioners argued the lump sum given to allocate as seen fit should be spent on materials, not salaries, and stressed inflation and cost pressures.
