(337 posts)I have a friend that retired from the local school district back in Jan. As head of IT, he sat in on all the budget meetings. Soon after the election, I asked him how eliminating the DoEd would affect district funding. He said a bit more the 90% of their funds came from state and local revenue streams, that they would definitely feel the loss but could absorb it. Special needs being the exception, almost all of special needs funding came from the feds. The state would have to step up and fund it or eliminate the special needs programs.
Most states are in the same boat, some kick in extra above what the feds provide, but pretty much all special needs programs would collapse without federal funding. This lady is going to get a major working over by a clue by four right before the leopard eats her face.
