A strong educationally sound Chapel Hill – Carrboro City School System is fundamental to our community’s well being. Many have argued that Town Government has nothing to do with the local school system because each is overseen by a different group of elected officials. We believe that is “stovepipe” thinking. Joint planning for infrastructure and support for excellent education among Town, County and school officials is essential to the well being of our Chapel Hill-Carrboro public school system. Chapel Hill and Carrboro town policies and actions establish a healthy environment of clean air and water quality, as well as ensuring uncrowded classrooms. The Orange County Board of Commissioners bears the responsibility for funding our schools.
