How Much Is Your Student Worth to Texas? Learn How the Basic Allotment Impacts School Districts.
What is the amount of money Texas pays to educate a student in public schools? What’s known as the basic allotment is the per-student sum the state uses as the foundational building block to determine how much money it will pay to educate a student.
