Round Rock Independent School District (RRISD) voted last Thursday night to use bond money to build two new wings to Round Rock High School. The vote, 6-1 (Terri Romere voted no), was to spend $46.4 million on 2 new wings at RRHS. $36.5million of that is from "leftover" bond money which taxpayers approved for other projects.

For the past two years, AFP-Texas has hosted a website The Red Apple Project which provides a "snapshot" of education spending and performance in Texas. The data comes directly from data reported by independent school districts (ISD's) to the Texas Education Agency (TEA).

Don't be fooled. A group calling itself The Parent PAC really isn't who they claim to be. Their tagline is: "Let’s elect state legislators who listen to parents and consistently vote in the interest of children and neighborhood schools!"
