"Every student, every campus will be affected by this two-part proposal," said Mike Waldrip to parents in a district-produced video.. In Grapevine-Colleyville they're asking voters to pay more for salaries and expenses, but pay less for maintenance so their taxes won't really go up. Anything more? Yes, school districts aren't allowed to tell you much about what will happen if the increased taxes don't pass but they've hinted at it. Brad Schnautz, Superintendent of Grapevine-Colleyville wrote in a letter to parents.
Parents have questioned if it's all necessary, calling for better budgeting and pointing out -- Governor Abbott held up some school funding because vouchers wouldn't pass in Austin but he may have the votes next year so they money could flow after all.
