Again though

The bonds passed with 63% from voters.

Having been to Texas and Oklahoma during football season several times, there is nothing more important (year round) than football to them. It’s a priority, they vote yes and they turn out some of the best football players every year.

South isn't in the same situation

I have family in education in the south and I’m a teacher here and we are in completely different boats. They aren’t facing anything like what we are in this broken state. They rely a lot on oil revenue for education, which is doing quite well and we rely on taxation for education. Money isn’t that big of a problem for them right now. Maybe we should drill offshore to build an arena! JK!

I'm probably digressing, but

Money may or may not be an issue per se in context, but the quality of education is far below most of the rest of the country. Being a product of a Louisiana public high school and then having attended community college in Sac, then Cal Berkeley, there’s a huge gap.

Another reason I’m not willing to raise children here, charter school or no.

just letting you know

technically speaking, this particular school is actually one of the best ones in the state of Texas and in a pretty high property tax paying area (for Texas at least). Not sure if this is quite “Friday Night Lights” or not.
