Schools face financial train wreckBy H.D. CHAMBERS and LOUIS STOERNERHOUSTON CHRONICLEApril 18, 2010, 9:45PM
Pearland: Budget knife falls on school nurses, librariansDespite concerns from parents and questions from trustees, Pearland ISD officials elected to replace nurses and librarians with health care assistants and uncertified library managers at a recent Pearland Independent School District school board meeting. “Are we putting the students at risk by not having a qualified person on staff in those cases where it’s not just a scratch it’s a broken arm?” trustee Dean Hamil asked. “I think putting children at risk in some of the more serious situations is not in the best interest of the district.” [ View Article ] Apr 20, 2010, 07:50Seguin: SISD expects tight budget for next yearRising property values won’t help bring new revenue to local school districts. Sandra Hill, Seguin ISD’s chief financial officer, said the district is looking at a revenue loss of $600,000 in the coming year, primarily due to lower enrollment. SISD staff and board members met last week for a preliminary budget workshop, where they learned that the financial squeeze will continue in the 2010-2011 fiscal year.

"We are not in the process right now of thinking about laying off anyone in any of our departments, but we are looking at not filling certain staffing areas if we feel like we're over staffed there," Martel said.

NEWS RELEASEFort Bend Independent School DistrictTO: MediaFROM: Mary Ann Simpson, Chief Communications OfficerDATE: April 6, 2010RE: District begins reduction in force process
FORT BEND ISD—to address the district’s serious financial challenges, the Board of Trustees approved a resolution declaring financial exigency at the March 8 regular board meeting. This action allows the administration to move forward in implementing financial processes to best address a projected budget deficit of approximately $20 million, and develop a balanced budget for the 2010-2011 school year. It also enabled the district to declare a reduction in force (elimination of positions)…
Current public school funding issues include:
• Districts operating revenues vary from $3,000 to more than $12,000 per student
• Revenues were frozen at 2005-2006 levels until 2009, when the Legislature provided minimal additional funding
• The Legislature mandated that the majority of the additional funds be spent for salary increases for certain employees
• No increased funding for escalating fuel, insurance and electricity costs
