State budget freeze affects Stokes County Schools
(By Leslie Bray Evans, The Stokes News) - With the current budget shortfall in the State of North Carolina, a state budget freeze has now taken effect. This freeze affects every school system in North Carolina, including Stokes County.
“It’s the worst I’ve ever seen it,” said Stokes County Schools Superintendent Dr. Stewart Hobbs. “It’s even worse than in 2002.”
Even the ordering of necessary items has been affected. The state declared that any orders that had not arrived by last Thursday, April 16, would have to be cancelled. Thanks to quick thinking and action by Stokes County Schools Finance Director Lanette Moore, Stokes County’s orders were largely unaffected.
