My community partner does not have the authority to raise funds through taxation.My community partner, the Bel Air tutorial program is part of Bel Air Elementary School. Schools are funded by local property taxes and state aid. The school districts then decide how the money is budgeted As it was with the interface with local governments, my community partner has more of a secondary association with taxation and funding.
Bel Air is facing possible closure because the district does not have the money, due to budget cuts, to support the elementary school, especially when its students are not performing. It is due to the district's reluctance to continue to fund Bel Air Elementary School that my community partner was established.
