4 <br /> Priority School Issues — Support legislation to address the following issues related to schools: <br /> a) Provide local school systems with calendar flexibility; <br /> b) Provide full funding for State allotments including Average Daily Membership (ADM) <br /> growth and infrastructure/capital, and support legislation to provide for an overall <br /> increase in funding based on ADM outside of the current formula system; <br /> c) a periodic accounting process for State per pupil funds so that funds and pro-rated funds <br /> follow students to their respective schools, as opposed to the current process that only <br /> considers State funding allocations based on students' attendance location on a single <br /> day during the school year; <br /> d) Increase salary compensation for teachers and staff at all years of service; <br /> e) Impose class size reductions commensurate with State funding for staffing; and <br /> f) Maintain full funding for Driver Education; <br /> School Capital Funding — Support legislation to provide needed State capital funding to support <br /> school infrastructure, renovations, and new construction, and support a State bond referendum to <br /> address school capital needs; and <br /> Non-Partisan Redistricting Process for Elections — Support legislation to establish a process <br /> for an independent, non-partisan redistricting process after each United States Census for the <br /> election of representatives from North Carolina to the United States House of Representatives, the <br /> North Carolina House, and the North Carolina Senate. <br />
