Fund balance

Based upon stories read in the local rag it appears the PISD is trying to rid the money it saved for a rainy day via the fund balance. The rainy day may take place after the state legislature finalizes the 2011-2014 budgets. It appears that nothing will be spared when the gathering takes place in Austin in January.

If the big metro rags are reporting correctly it appears Texas will have 22,000 less teachers on the payroll in future budget years and school consolidation will be on the table as a cost saving idea. One would be willing to bet school administration personnel will be fighting this idea. Don't really look for school consolidation to happen; however, it could make for some interesting debate.
