These bills simply repeal the punitive small schools formula and use the same state-recognized, cost-based multiplier established 30 years ago (.0004) for all small school districts regardless of whether they happen to be greater or less than 300 square miles. It is a simple, clean fix to a decades-old inequity within the funding system.


When we started working with Senator Nichols, Representative Ashby and Representative Frank, we were hopeful it would garner support during the session.We have been pleasantly surprised by how quickly it has gained awareness and support because of the efforts of Equity Center members!

Over 80 districts took part in our working group meeting in December, and many more of the over 400 districts affected by this formula have called to let their legislators know of this important change.

It's time to do what's right for our Texas schools. Please sign today to show your support to finally putting an end to this injustice.
