Per Pupil Education Costs in Comanche District
Supt H R Jefferies notes from Texas Education Agency figures show 71-72 per pupil cost at 621 dollars with state funding masking higher program costs. State average for similar districts was 685, local funding about 200 including 50 bonded debt. Future years expect higher costs but state aid will cover about 90 percent of salary increases while local district bears maintenance and operation costs.
