How LNC is Funded

Charter schools are not funded to the same level or way as traditional public schools. This results in a gap in the funds we receive from state and local governments compared with the funds area county school districts receive. LNC does not receive taxpayer money for its buildings, athletic facilities, transportation or toward any other capital expenditures. This results in significantly less funding for our school and students. We must make up this difference by being good stewards of our funds and watchful of our expenses, taking on debt similar to your mortgage, and asking our parents, our community and our other school “friends” for financial support.
