TEA to DISD: You Have Flexibility In Funding Magnet Schools

Reporting from the Pappadeaux happy hour, cuz that’s how I roll:

DISD was informed today by email that they do not have to adhere to the funding parameters discussed in our previous blog posts and on Unfair Park. That means the board is not bound to cut the 13 Booker T. teachers I’ve been yelling about. Unsure yet what they WILL do, but, to quote district spokesman Jon Dahlander, “If I were a Booker T. parent, I would read this as good news.” Check out the board meeting this week for further developments.
