Funding

How North Carolina funds schools

North Carolina funds its districts chiefly through state allotments driven by average daily membership: position allotments pay for guaranteed staff such as classroom teachers (the single largest item), while dollar allotments provide fixed per-pupil amounts, with added allotments for children with disabilities, limited-English, at-risk and low-wealth or small counties. North Carolina is unusual in that the state funds the bulk of operating costs (roughly two-thirds of school revenue) while counties mainly fund buildings and local salary supplements.

District-level per-pupil spending and the local/state/federal revenue split for Gray Stone Day School School District are published in the federal school-finance files — see the full-data links below for the current figures.
