- Spending per pupil in the district is 22% less than the state average and net school spending is approaching the state minimum. Based on current trends, the district's standing compared to peers and the state average will deteriorate further.
- The number of teachers has declined from a high of 517 to a low of 399 in recent years due to budget cuts, though some positions were retained last year through stimulus funds and grants.
- The district is proposing increases in class sizes, shortening the school day, doubling fees for clubs/activities, implementing a tiered system for higher athletic fees, and eliminating 3 buses to address budget shortfalls in the coming year.
- Spending per pupil in the district is 22% less than the state average and net school spending is approaching the state minimum. Based on current trends, the district's standing compared to peers and the state average will continue to deteriorate.
- Recent cuts have reduced the number of teachers from a high of 517 to a low of 399, and increased class sizes. Further cuts are needed but there are no other areas left to cut without impacting personnel.
- Passing an override would allow the district to avoid cuts like increasing class sizes to 30 students, shortening the school day, eliminating programs and activities, and retaining high quality teachers. The average cost per household would be $254 or about 70 cents
The Tipp City School District is asking voters to approve a 7.95 mill emergency levy on August 7th to generate $3 million annually for 5 years. State funding cuts have forced the district to make $1.3 million in budget cuts with another $1 million expected for the upcoming school year.

An audit found the district running a deficit and down to less than one month of operating funds. Despite collaboration with the state entities, the local board approved a consolidation plan that increases costs and is not data-driven or in students' best interests. Direct state involvement is needed to ensure the district and community's needs are met.

State of North Carolina and the State Board of Education. This order replaces the previous assignment of Judge Michael L. Robinson, who stated in a letter that he could no longer preside over the case due to his responsibilities as a North Carolina Business Court judge. The new assignment is to address the order of remand from the North Carolina Supreme Court and attend to any other necessary matters until further notice.

Edgecombe County Public Schools
THE KEYS TO SUCCESS: HOME, SCHOOL, COMMUNITY
March 16, 2017
Honorable Gov. Roy Cooper
North Carolina Office of the Governor
20301 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699 – 0301
Dear Gov. Cooper:
Edgecombe County Public Schools continues to suffer from devastating effects caused by
Hurricane Matthew when the storm hit on October 8, 2016. As you are aware, our school system
lost eight (8) days of instruction at thirteen of our school campuses, with thirteen (13) days of
instruction lost at Princeville Elementary School. We are most appreciative of the legislative
efforts, as well as the efforts led by the Office of the Governor in providing relief to our school
system with the added flexibility in making up the instructional time lost.
We are immensely grateful for your efforts in visiting our communities in Edgecombe and the
dedication that you have shown to improving the lives of our citizens, our students and teachers,
and North Carolina.
Just last week, our leadership team was privileged to meet with members of your staff, including
Dempsey Benton and Ryan Flynn. During this meeting our leadership team was asked what
areas of assistance we needed from the State to assist Edgecombe County Schools with our
recovery efforts. The items that we need legislative and gubernatorial assistance with, which
were shared with your staff, include the following:
(1) Funding to cover $300,000 of transportation costs associated with busing students
that continue to be displaced from Edgecombe County to their schools of origin
within our District.
(2) Request legislative action to hold harmless our ADM (Average Daily Membership)
allocation to our ADM at the beginning of the 2016-2017 school year of 5988.
Additional supports from the State, including raises, bonuses, and benefit increases
would need to be in addition to our hold harmless provision request.
(3) Restore Low Wealth and At-Risk Student Services funding with an additional
$460,778 (Low Wealth reduced by $329,460 and At Risk Student Services reduced
by $131,318; totaling $460,778).
The rationale for these requests are vested in our mission to provide for the best, highest quality
education possible for our students. In addition, the request made for transportation costs in item

(1) are not covered by FEMA, insurance, or other sources of funding, and instead, will be
incurred by our local budget. We have instituted these transportation methods to insure that our
students that reside outside of our county are able to return to their home schools to have some
semblance of normalcy to their lives, in the midst of the destruction that they have endured.
I am concerned with the provision in the State Board of Education’s Allotment policy manual,
regarding allotment adjustments for ADM decreases. The manual provides that: “In accordance
with HB 1473 Section 7.15 (b), decreases to allotments must be made if the original anticipated
ADM used for allotments exceeds the higher of the first or second month Average Daily
Membership (ADM) by at least 2% or 100 students.” With the significant impact of the
Hurricane, and with the displacement of so many of our county’s residents, as well as the
relocation of Princeville Elementary School and the undetermined factor of whether the school
will be able to be reopened, I feel that these requests will enable our school system to have
stability until our residents can return. I request that these stabilization funds be provided for a
period of two (2) years to cover the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 school years. As you will recall,
it was well over five (5) years before most of our citizens were able to fully return to their homes
after the devastating flood caused by Hurricane Floyd in 1999.
With regards to item request (3), our experience with Hurricane Floyd and now with Hurricane
Matthew, has demonstrated the overwhelming need for supplemental funding to assist our
already large at-risk student population.
I hope that you and the legislature will be able to support our efforts to maintain stability for our
students. We have only asked for reasonable support for our students, despite the many needs
that exist in the educational arena. I am most grateful for your leadership and your support that
you have provided during these very trying times. Thank you for considering these requests and
know that I stand ready to provide further detail and / or clarification on any of the
aforementioned points of requests.
Sincerely,
JohnD.Farrelly
