COVID pandemic has not increased state-tax spending on Texas' public schools

School finance formulas allocated $23.7 billion in state aid in 2022 to help pay for educating 5.4 million students in more than 1,000 local school districts and charter schools. That's a 3.2 percent drop from 2021, which in turn was a mere 0.1 percent higher than 2020, after major legislative changes to school funding starting in Fall 2019. Nonformula grants to schools did increase in 2022, thanks to federal COVID relief for public education.

Schools get much of their state aid early in the school year, because local property taxes -- the single largest revenue source supporting Texas schools -- aren't due until January 31.

Schools have been caught lately between two opposing trends: On one hand, juvenile crime rates are declining. On the other hand, school shootings have prompted administrators to beef up security. There’s little reporting required about the details, but the trends are clear: There are more police in schools — and more students arrested — than ever, even as schools are generally getting safer.

Creating is now at the TOP of Bloom’s revised taxonomy. Students are creating exceptional content every day that never makes it out of the classroom! Think students should be producers of educational content instead of passive consumers? Check out our video and vote for our idea (Idea #2) at www.RatherPrize.org!
