Myth: The Legislature increased education funding during the past legislative session
Truth: The state budget for public education is slightly higher than the previous biennium, but does not account for 170,000 additional students or loss of $3.2 billion in federal stimulus funds from previous budgets
![Page 11: Brian T. Woods, Ed.D. Superintendent Northside ISD](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551a76a85503463e778b61f8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Statewide budget cuts• $4 billion from Foundation School Program• $1.4 billion from education grants• 170,000 additional students over biennium
NISD budget cuts• $19 million in 2010-11 in anticipation• Additional $42.4 million in 2011-12 (total $61.4
mil.)• Reduced staff by almost 1,000 positions• No salary increases, cut stipends• Increase class size and many other reductions
![Page 12: Brian T. Woods, Ed.D. Superintendent Northside ISD](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551a76a85503463e778b61f8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Myth: Schools have significantly more administrative staff than they did 30 years ago.
Truth: The percentage of teachers to non-teachers hasn’t changed substantially since the 1980s.• TEA didn’t count auxiliary personnel prior to
1980s.

New test and new accountability system
Overreliance on testing as a means of measuring students, schools and districts• The means has become the end
New accountability system – will it be understandable
