Funding the BCPS budget is a partnership, with funding from 3 main sources:
Local
Tax revenue and other county dollars provide the most revenue for the BCPS Operating Budget— about 48 percent.
State
Nearly 39 percent of the budget is funded through state revenue. The percentage of the budget funded through state revenue continues to grow, thanks to the passage of Blueprint for Maryland's Future legislation that will provide millions of dollars in funding to BCPS over several years.
Federal and Other
BCPS receives nearly 14% in funding dollars from the federal government and other sources.
