This budget season’s back-and-forth is not just another year of budget negotiations, Chapel Hill-Carrboro schools Superintendent Neil Pedersen told parents at a budget meeting on Tuesday.
Pedersen outlined a number of potential budget cuts the schools could face if the district does not receive its requested budget, and stressed the importance of a tax rate increase.
“When we look at the magnitude of the shortfall this year, there’s no way to make reductions that don’t impact the children,†Pedersen said.
