What stands out about how Brodnax is run
Read from the town’s budget and official records.
Brunswick County Public Schools
Brodnax’s K–12 school district, shared with Alberta, Lawrenceville. It’s its own government, with a budget separate from the town’s.
Of the $20,002 per pupil, $7,930 goes to the classroom (teachers, aides, supplies); the rest to buses, buildings, counselors and administration. Building projects and debt payments aren’t in the per-pupil figure.
