I support the following Travis Heights PTA priorities and recommendations:

Priorities
• All day pre-kindergarten for all students on a sliding scale
• No school closures-We support neighborhood schools!
• Minimize staff cuts, especially those closest to teaching and learning (in
   general, we support Education Austin’s proposals for staffing
   recommendations)
 
Closing the Budget Gap
• Cuts to central administration first: both staffing and facilities
• Spend down the district fund balance as much as possible
• Give some discretion to local campuses if cuts must be made at schools
• If necessary, consider a tax rate election, if it goes to fund the above priorities
