Release Funds for Our School’s Vital Services


Release Funds for Our School’s Vital Services
The Issue
The $19 billion Texas public schools received in federal stimulus funds expire in 2024, and our current school finance formulas are not flexible enough to meet the ongoing instructional demands or inflationary cost pressures. Texas lawmakers will have a substantial amount of funding this legislative session – over $27 billion in additional general revenue and over $13.6 billion in our state’s Rainy Day Fund. Investing in public school students should be a priority every session, because the future of Texas depends on well-funded public schools.
We urge the relevant authorities (Abbott) to release funds necessary for maintaining the vital services provided by our school library and more! This action will not only benefit current students but also future generations who will depend on these resources.
Please sign this petition and join us in advocating for adequate funding for our cherished schools!
