County Funds for Schools Lag Behind Funds for County Government

I believe we must hold our county government accountable. We must start with county spending. Since 1997, the county's general fund has grown faster (6.95%) than county support for education (3.99%), while outside agencies had the least growth (0.89%). See Chattanooga Times Free Press story by clicking HERE. Or click HERE to see graph of spending.

We must hold county government responsible, starting with spending. I will bring fiscal discipline to county government, push more dollars to the classroom, and demand a Responsibility Agreement between school board members and county commission.
