The Northampton County program has received about $180,000 in recent years to serve 90 high school students, many of whom are African-American and from low-income families.

If I did the math correctly, isn't that $20,000 per student? Seems a tad bit high to me.

Wow, that’s a lot of money per student! Barron Trump’s tuition is only about $38,000!

When you divide $180,000 by 90 you get $2,000 per student, which isn’t a whole lot of money.

180k / 90 = 2k/kid, not 20k

Nope, you didn’t do the math correctly.
