Wake school leaders say budget is good, but not enough

The budget increase for Wake County schools isn't what the school board asked for, but leaders say it is more than what was originally expected.

On Monday, school board members learned of an extra $10 million hole that needs to be filled because of the proposed state budget that promises raises for teachers. Commissioners say the budget they voted on makes per-pupil spending the highest it has ever been. Leaders will meet at 4 p.m. on Tuesday to further discuss the budget.
