The Orange County system includes one senior high, two <br />middle schools, and four elementary schools. 8o!.h units receive the same per pupil funding from <br />the county. However, the residents in tl~e Chapel Hill-Carfooro unit have voted to pay a <br />supplemental tax of up to an additional 15.75 cents per $100 assessed value. <br /> <br />24 <br /> <br /> <br />
