HB 1589 would create a new governmental agency that would report to the governor, lt. governor, speaker of the House and legislature. It would be called the CENTER FOR FINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY AND PRODUCTIVITY IN PUBLIC EDUCATION. The bill basically states that this agency would monitor the cost-efficiency of schools and report that back to the government. And who would pay for this agency and its staff???? Maybe the school districts in Texas should collectively create the CENTER FOR FINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY AND PRODUCTIVITY IN TEXAS STATE GOVERNMENT. Call or e-mail your rep about this one that is scheduled to be heard on Tuesday 3/15.
HB 1326 is scheduled for public hearing. This bill would change schools drastically. Students would attend 4 days instead of 5 and for 8.5 hours each day. How could students and teachers physically and mentally handle that long of a school day? Time to call and write our Representatives on this one!
