schools from B1
The District’s publicly financed but independently operated char- ter schools would fare somewhat better under Fenty’s plan, princi- pally because their enrollment is projected to increase by 1,628 students to 29,695. Charter schools receive a $2,800 per-stu- dent facilities allotment. Public- school enrollment is expected to remain essentially flat next year at about 45,800. Total education spending for
fiscal 2011 would decline to $757.5 million, from the current $779.5 million. The dip reflects declin- ing tax revenues and the end of federal economic stimulus fund- ing. In 2009, city schools received about $70 million through the stimulus law. The District suf- fered another financial setback this week when its application for

about $100 million in school re- form funding was denied in the first round of the Obama admin- istration’s Race to the Top compe- tition. D.C. officials are expected to reapply this spring for the con- test’s second round. During the past three years,
Schools Chancellor Michelle A. Rhee has pushed more money from the central office to the schools. Direct support to schools increased nearly 7 percent, or $39 million, during that period. But that trend appears to be ending. Schools will now be obligated to pay for some programs once fi- nanced by the central office. High schools will be required, for example, to fund JROTC, which

costs about $150,000 a year for two instructors. The proposed per-student in- crease would flow to centrally ad- ministered programs. Spending on early-childhood initiatives — including an additional 184 Head Start classrooms in 70 schools — would grow from $42.4million to $55.1million. Special educa- tion, an area in which the District is under federal court supervi- sion because of a class-action lawsuit brought by parents de- manding better services, would receive a funding boost from $128 million to $132 million. Food-service spending would rise from $17.1million to $28.5mil- lion.
work ethic from B1
In the high-salary realm of
management consulting firms, which hire hundreds of young adults annually, the youngest em- ployees are far more likely to re- quest the flexibility to work from home or during off-hours, exec- utives say. Nicole Furst, 38, a senior exec-
utive at Accenture in Reston, said the younger generation at her firm has little interest in putting in long hours simply because that’s what previous generations did. “They make it clear that it’s not a pattern they would adopt,” she said. “They look at all the Gen- eration Xers and say, ‘I don’t want to put in all those hours when I am at that point.’ ” Furst said younger workers’ emphasis on a better balance among work, family and friends even at the start of a career is “ad- mirable. You sit here, and say, ‘That makes sense.’ ” The influx of a bulge of workers into the economy, especially at a time of starkly higher unemploy- ment, has spawned an industry of pollsters, authors and consultants seeking to explain the young gen- eration. The titles of books about millennials appear to reveal a cer- tain condescension from older generations: “The Dumbest Gen- eration” and “The Trophy Kids Grow Up.” Even more-neutral studies fo-

cus on the generation’s supposed- ly weak work ethic. In a book due out this month, “The M-Factor: How the Millennial Generation Is Rocking the Workplace” (Harper Business), authors Lynne C. Lan- caster and David Stillman report on a survey they conducted last year showing that almost nothing bothers older workers as much as having colleagues who put in few- er hours, while millennials seem wholly unperturbed by that real- ity of the workplace. Jennifer Miller, 44, director of talent acquisition at Sibley Me- morial Hospital in the District, said younger nurse recruits in job interviews frequently make de- mands about when they can and can’t work. “The younger candi- dates start talking about how their shifts need to fit into a pre- determined schedule, rather than working around whatever the hospital needs,” she said. “They say, ‘I can’t work evenings.’ I was schooled in you don’t put up road- blocks at all in an interview.” Some young Sibley nurses crave
more responsibility and grander titles without putting in the years of grunt work that previous gen- erations saw as the gateway to ad- vancement, Miller said. “We had a new grad [last fall],
she finished a master’s degree and she wanted to be a nurse manag- er. But she had no nurse manag- ing experience. I wouldn’t have made the assumption that the mere fact I had finished this new degree meant that my employer would find me a new job.” At Hertz in Alexandria, Rogalia said his peers at work are sometimes easily dis- tracted. “We’ve had to take disciplinary ac- tions,” he said. “We had a new hire who was watching video on his iPhone with his head- phones on, and the cus- tomers were kind of looking around to see what this kid was doing. He was laughing. He stopped showing up after a while.”
Rogalia, who wakes at 5 a.m. for work and does not get home until about 8 p.m., said it was only re- cently that he felt he had a decent work ethic. After graduating from college in 2007, he lived at home in New York with his parents. “Life was great, but I didn’t feel
good about myself,” he said. “I was lazy. I was working two part-time jobs. I think the older generations do have a better work ethic. My parents pampered me and gave
me anything I asked for.” One busy Friday night at Poto- mac Pizza, Haleem evaluated his younger colleagues, all in their early 20s and still in college: Ryan Mooney, a sophomore at Mont- gomery College; Bill Lustig, an American University senior; and Chris Healing, a Catholic Univer- sity senior. “Mooney’s always in the back
room at the computer, trying to win online betting,” Haleem said. “Bill, he’s always getting yelled at by his girlfriend. Everyone will

tell you that she’s a great girl. She keeps tabs on him. Let’s keep it at that. Chris is always texting with his girlfriend.” They all seemed busy enough,
except Mooney, who was looking to skip out for a break at a nearby bar. “Why can’t I just leave?” he asked nobody in particular as he clutched a piece of paper with predictions on that evening’s col- lege basketball games. Lustig, hungry for tips, over- heard Mooney and shot back, “You can leave, if you want — more tables for me.”
