Per Capita Aid For Schools Cut In Texas Apportionment
In Austin July 37 the per student scholastic apportionment for Texas free public schools was reduced from 17.80 to 16.00 dollars. The move, based on comptroller revenue estimates, lowers the school fund demand by about 2.25 million dollars. Nat Washer, chairman of the state board, said notices were sent to school offices to adjust contracts for the 1992 94 year. The comptroller estimates August 31 obligations at 5,516,637 dollars, with 4.50 of the 1991 32 allotment unpaid and carried to the next year if not settled.
