We currently represent approximately 120 school districts whose
equalized wealth level exceeded $319,500 per weighted student. Our
organization has played a significant role in past legislative activities
pertaining to Chapter 41 school districts. Several benefits are available to
Chapter 41 districts, due, at least in part, to the leadership of the Coalition.
These benefits include:
• The Texas School Coalition led the fight against the statewide property tax
during the 79th legislative session
• Removal of debt service from recapture
• Permanent hold harmless provisions
• $.06 of non-recaptured enrichment pennies in the local tax rate
• 50 percent reduction in recapture payments since 2005-06
• Successful lawsuit against the state's unconstitutional $1.50 tax rate which
led to the passage of HB 1
• No set asides for compensatory education
• Very active involvement with Coalition to Invest in Texas Schools
If you have any questions about our organization, I would love to visit with you
about our group. Please feel free to give me a call.
