This year, FCPS is asking for a 10.5% increase from the County, while the County Executive has proposed to increase the FCPS transfer by 6.8%.  Some questions asked about this difference.  For example, the County’s proposed raises vary to reflect the difficulty of filling different types of jobs, while FCPS is proposing a 6% across-the-board raise for all FCPS employees plus increased supplemental pension benefits for FCPS employees hired before 2001. 

The County is facing growing fiscal challenges, which are likely to require increasingly tough future decisions about priorities.  For more information about the County Budget, see https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/budget/fy-2025-advertised-budget-plan  For more information about the FCPS Budget, see https://www.fcps.edu/budget/budget-documents.
