Report Card for 82nd Texas Legislature to fill out on their budget management

Below is a report card form to be shared with Legislators to help them realize the progress they may destroy with planned budget cuts.  If they cut education as planned Texas will be watching these four measurements for graduation rate progress to see if they go up or back down to where Texas was 5 years ago.  We will not need to estimate what happens.  We will have the exact numbers.


Please copy the above report card form.  Share it with your legislators as you speak with them.  Speak of the damage the planned cuts will inflict on educational progress in Texas. Use this to illustrate that tragedy.

If you would like to see the spreadsheets used to create this graph, and tabulate the other data used on these pages, they can be found at http://www.studentmotivation.org/texas/.
