The state will remove $54 million from @LewisvilleISD schools this year, which Superintendent Lori Rapp correctly describes as an impediment to teacher compensation increases. #txlege #txed

"The state continues to rely more and more on local property tax revenue, rather than state revenue, to fund public schools. Specifically, the surplus has been cushioned because school districts are paying more than ever in recapture." #txlee #txed https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/commentary/2023/01/21/reform-robin-hood/

"The problem of recapture needs attention. Hopefully our legislators will seize this opportunity to work on real, durable solutions." MUST-READ @DMNOpinion piece from Board Presidents in @Dallasschools & @Plano_Schools #txlege #txed

Recapture allows the state to remove $5 billion from school districts and it's something all of us should be raising with legislators. For much more about the causes and growth of recapture, and solutions, go to http://recapturetexas.org. #txlege #txed

When the state takes money from schools through Robin Hood recapture, those dollars don’t mean other schools have more funding. That money feeds the larger pot of revenue that legislators can spend on other programs. #txlege #txed http://recapturetexas.org
