The N.C. Department of Public Instruction (DPI) released their Highlights of the North Carolina Public School Budget 2015 document this weekend.  There are two interesting graphs in the piece. One shows that state appropriations for K-12 schools increased each year since 2011.  Another reveals that average teacher compensation increased by nearly $2,800 between 2013-2014 and 2014-2015.
