CREDITS / ILLUSTRATIONS AND PHOTOS

I took the following photos:  Eanes ISD building and grounds and Llano ISD.

All of the other photos are from either school districts or chamber of commerce or city/area visitor sites. If you'd like to know more, right click
on the photo you'd like more information about.

Here is some supplemental material for which there was not room above, or, as with the case of Brownsville ISD, as their check register is
not online, the district did not qualify for inclusion in the above roster.

Friends, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the superintendents, administrators and trustees of the school districts below for posting their check registers
online.  I wish I could have done a snapshot in pictures of all of these districts.   The dollars in the pink column below represent "General Fund/Total Revenue"
forecasting for 2006-07; this is the amount we usually hear about as a school district's budget for the new year. The actual dollars spent are also that same 2006-07
period, in the blue columns on the right half of the page.  Please scroll down to the bottom of the roster for more information from TEA regarding these numbers.

No wonder Pat/Pascal hasn't put Austin ISD's check register online yet!

If you'd like to look up other years, start here and follow the links.  Myself?  I only look at the actual financial data as the budgeted
forecasts are not nearly so useful -- or as grounded in reality.  Here's the full URL to get you to the page shown above; you can either click
on it or copy and paste it into your URL browser:

At the beginning of 2006-07, Austin ISD supe Pat Forgione forecast that Austin ISD would spend $ 624,423,013 as its
general fund, total revenue amount.  Curious how close Pat's forecast was to the amount he actually wrote checks for
during 2006-07?  I'm curious, too; after all, under his other name, "Pascal Forgione," he was the Clinton-appointed U.S.
Commissioner of Education Statistics who headed up the National Center for Education Statistics (until he and then-Vice
President Al Gore tangled on what the stats meant and he found the Austin ISD gig).

So let's click on the second red link above, scroll down again to Austin ISD and click one more time.   As it turns out, Pat's
forecast amount was short, by almost half:  $1,126,936,650 (all funds, total revenue).   To put this in historical
perspective, Austin ISD only gained about 4,000 students during that period yet its spending almost doubled:

Located in Cowtown, USA, Fort Worth ISD, previously
headed by Thomas Tocco (L), whose tenure was
marked by an FBI investigation and questionable
land
and contractor dealings, is now headed by Melody
Johnson, at right during the Mexican-American School
Board Association's 2005
salud to their "Triple
Crown": supes in Dallas, Houston & San Antonio.
To her credit,
superintendent
Johnson has
voluntarily
posted
FWISD's
checks online.
Tocco has applied for other super-
intendent positions since leaving
FWISD, including Caddo Parish in
Louisiana (Fair Park High School
at left), which was given to ERDI
consultant Gerald Dawkins, who
had previously worked in Michigan.
Llano ISD taxpayers were told
by then-supe Jack Patton that
LISD desperately needed a
new high school; students
BROWNSVILLE ISD, recipient of the $1 million Broad Prize for 2008--the same week it was announced
BISD failed to make AYP--actually received the equivalent of 384 Broad Prizes during 2006-07 from
Texas and U.S. taxpayers as a $384 million gift. Is BISD a good steward of those monies? Only if you
consider an
8-person TV studio (KBSD) wise use of other people's money.  What about BISD's
6-person PR department?  Is it necessary to have a PR team to trumpet your "good news" in order to
win the Broad Prize?  Is it equitable for one of the so-called Robin Hood recipient districts to have such
luxuries as a TV studio and PR department when donor districts can't afford such luxuries?
  
FAST FACTS:  BISD's 2006-07 total receipts/all funds spending per student: $12,488.  QUESTION: If
BISD is serious about  
fraud, waste & abuse why aren't  Brownsville ISD's checks online?  
LEFT: Thanks to one judge's decision in
Plyler v. Doe, and U.S. authorities' unwillingness
to safeguard our own borders, Americans are forced to pay for education &
social services for millions of illegal immigrants--including how many at Brownvsville ISD?
Eanes ISD is
located in
western Austin;
as in many
districts,EISD's
supe gets the
best parking
spot (R), the
one closest to
the front door.
As of today 64% of all Texas public
school students are in districts with
check registers voluntarily online, and
62% of all state/local TX school
district dollars are website-posted.
