A lot of schools in Sumter County are Federally supported because the majority of students qualify for the federal free lunch programs. Not sure how this effects the county school budget.

I believe the real question in the original post is the last question…” For example, does the charter school get more money than Wildwood High School?” The answer is the School Board is responsible for the county school system budget. Each school in the county prepares its budget and submits it to the Board. The Board in turn consolidates all the budgets of all the schools in the county, adding the budget for the County Board. When the budget is finalized and approved, its submits it to the Tax Collector who in turn collects the taxes and turns the collections over to the Treasurer for disbursement. The Tax Collector is not responsible for the preparation of the budget.

Since the Charter School is run separately from the district schools the appropriations for that are easier to find in the budget. It looks like approximately one third of the students are in the charter school and approximately one third of the instructional funds are sent to the charter school.

The Sumter County Schools are funded the same as most schools in the south. The counties not the cities manage and oversee the schools. The elected county school board is the responsible body. The charter school gets it's funding from the County the student resides in. They get no more and no less. The only benefit they have, which is not insignificant, is the physical plant is provided by the Villages, so they have no school bond to pay off. . Maintenance, staff, etc is the responsibility of the Charter School.
