In Texas “EVERYTHING” is to pay for Public Schools, then once it hits the Public Coffers it mingles with all the other funds and then we need to raise Property Taxes, State Sales Tax and Fuel Taxes just to keep New Public School Construction (each and every one named after a really spiffy Politician, with Stadiums and Olympic sized Pools) on track and on schedule.
10 or 20 years from now the Population will grow enough to allow them to lower Property Taxes... Promise!

As a retired educator I can say with some small authority that money has not been a problem for the public schools since WWII. And school boards will spend as readily as any other legislature, and they will spend it on what the voters want. They want winning football coaches more than they want math teachers.
