EARLY COLLEGE STUDENTS, ADMINISTRATORS CONCERNED OF FUNDING CUTS IN PROPOSED STATE BUDGET - By Andrew James, WWAY

School administrators and students are sending a message to state lawmakers. They’re sounding the alarm over the proposed state budget that would take away supportive funds for Early College High Schools. The Senate version of the budget would phase out funding for cooperative innovative high schools across the state within three years. That’s based on the beginning of the school and the approval of the budget. Some school are already feeling a pinch from pulled back funding according to staff at Pender Early College High School. https://www.wwaytv3.com/2019/06/06/early-college-students-administrators-concerned-of-funding-cuts-in-proposed-state-budget/
