Leaders in Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools and Mecklenburg County remain at an impasse one day before the commission is scheduled to begin voting on the school district’s budget.
“Today’s meeting resulted in no progress,” CMS Board Chair Elyse Dashew said.
The leaders are at odds over the plan to address equity and achievement scores at low-performing schools. Many of the schools have minority-majority populations that were disproportionately impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic.
County manager Dena Diorio presented a budget earlier this month that withholds at least $56 million from the CMS budget until they are given a specific plan that addresses the performance disparities.
