Briscoe Talks School Financing With Top City Officials
Gov. Dolph Briscoe met in Austin with superintendents and school board members from Texas' seven largest cities to discuss public school funding. A subcommittee had heard that one proposed program may cost about 150 million more than estimated, while bills from Briscoe and the Texas State Teachers Association were pegged near 500 million in initial analysis. The talks focused on teachers pay from 6600 escalating to higher levels, with debates over starting salaries and per pupil maintenance costs as lawmakers seek a 500 million budget target and a two year funding plan.
