Interim Superintendent Verletta White introduced a proposed $1.65 billion operating budget for Baltimore County Public Schools on Tuesday, saying the spending plan is “focused on our most valuable resources” — students and staff who make up the system.
White’s FY 2020 operating budget plan, unveiled at a Board of Education meeting in Towson, includes $56 million for administration, $603 million for instructional salaries and wages, and $209 million for special education.
The total request is an 8.1 percent increase from last year’s operating budget. The adopted FY 2019 budget totaled $1.5 billion.
