Well, they have been trying like hell to build a TWO MILLION dollar
football stadium.  The part is not the placement of funds, but on the
other side of the coin the average out of pocket spent by teachers in
order for their "room" to have what it needs to inspire is $700.00.
Not to mention salary.  I think the average teacher in our district is
approximately $30k.  I don't have to tell anyone the more educated a
person is in this academic climate in Texas is not, NOT attracted to
teach.  Teach to the test. Thanks dubbya.
