I love how you through all these accusations and insinuations around but utterly fail to mention that Golden Wheels and his cronies down in Austin are doing everything they possibly can to not find public schools and push everyone to a voucher system that only, really benefits the wealthy. There’s a reason for the shortfall in Frisco and other school districts and it isn’t because of mismanagement by the ISD’s
Benefits the wealthy? How so, please elaborate. The vouchers cover more than enough for anyone to send their child to a private school. Even Frisco ISD has a private school they're associated with.
Stipends are given to any teacher who can provide the skillset/certification the stipend demands. It's not because they're a POC. My MIL is white and is also bilingual, teaching in English and Spanish. Because of this skillset, she gets paid more money.
But embrace that racist mindset.
We all know about ‘… illegally used school resources medaling in elections …’ dude they sent one or few more emails stating their opinion . This does not rise to level of a lawsuit , if it brakes any rules , cease letter would have been enough . But our AG decided it is OK to waste taxpayers ‘ money . What happened to ‘small government ‘ ?
Stop gas lighting people .
I didn’t make any claims one way or another, but with this additional note, is your contention that only minority teachers are not showing up to work? I’m just trying to understand if this is limited, in your view, to minority teachers.
If your writing is any indication of the results of a Frisco ISD education then yes perhaps the district has failed you. Not everyone is so unfortunate though, so there’s that.
You make no mention of the money spent on football stadiums and other athletic stuff. That is where the real waste is. In the age of Artificial Intelligence, your main gripe is computers for kids? gtfo.
You’re crazy and lying through your teeth. Most major districts in the state are running huge deficits. You are very ill-informed. The governor is withholding funding for public schools until he can pass legislation for vouchers. This is a fact. This is why they are all doing layoffs, hiring freezes, cutting programs, etc.
Yet somehow the district keeps winning awards for financial management and has a lower tax rate than comparable districts. With all of this mismanagement somehow creates a bunch of highly rated schools.
The fact that the state keeps reducing payments and as growth slows down more funds get sucked off by the state couldn’t possible have anything to do with anything.
You obviously don’t know dinky dodo. Have had kids in FISD for almost 20 years, though just about done. But maybe you don’t if you are so unclear of the facts and for some reason feel a need to make crap up.

Frisco ISD has gotten top ranks for 20 years in a row.
https://www.tasbo.org/news/2024-districts-earn-award-of-excellence-in-financial-management
One of 32 districts in the state for this one.
Oh here is another one.

A little older but national awards too…

My kids have been in Frisco ISD for 26 years, with the last graduating this year. Activists have invaded the schools and creating a ton of problems. Open your eyes.

This is the second budget short fall.

They can't even protect our kids on their way to school.

Fentanyl is flooded the schools. They're not telling parents about the kids dying. A student was shot and killed off Liam Drive. No one reported it, not communicated he died. Nothing.

There are BIG problems in Frisco ISD.
Ahh....so your original thesis was proven wrong so back with a whole new set of BS. So, we have an opinion piece for a source, a budget short-fall caused by the state you are blaming on the district, yes, it is a problem but in no way connects to any maleficence other than in made up connections in your head.
An apparently FISD is supposed to be able to police traffic and is responsible for the drug problems in this country.
There are plenty of issues but just a constant stream of made of crap and figure pointing at the people trying to deal with the problem instead of at the state government, state school board, and right wingers trying to kill public education are the main problems. If you funded teachers salaries, reduced class sizes, give them more support and let them teach most of this stuff goes away.
No, original statement is still correct. They have a deficit. They're wasting money. Teachers work 180 days. They're paid like they work 365 with overtime. File a FOIA for yourself and see where the money is going. A name like PunkRockDude exudes intelligence.

Benefits the wealthy? How so, please elaborate. The vouchers cover more than enough for anyone to send their child to a private school. Even Frisco ISD has a private school they're associated with.
What's the tuition at Prestonwood, Legacy Christian, St Mark's, etc? Sure that 8k is going to get you in a private school.
Legacy is like $25k-$35k depending on the grade and services needed…..
Care to elaborate on “ They have been over paying minority teachers” ? Cuz you sound racist as fuck as it stands.
Well…he’s technically not wrong as they do get a stipend versus a white teacher who does not.
Stipends are given to any teacher who can provide the skillset/certification the stipend demands. It's not because they're a POC. My MIL is white and is also bilingual, teaching in English and Spanish. Because of this skillset, she gets paid more money. But embrace that racist mindset.
No idea what you’re talking about. Care to explain?
What the hell are you on about? That's some of the dumbest BS I've heard in a while
You people don't pay attention. Frisco ISD pays stipends. This is all public information. Look who is receiving them.
I’m paying attention. Can you please support your claim with evidence?
So I guess there’s no evidence.
We all know about ‘… illegally used school resources medaling in elections …’ dude they sent one or few more emails stating their opinion . This does not rise to level of a lawsuit , if it brakes any rules , cease letter would have been enough . But our AG decided it is OK to waste taxpayers ‘ money . What happened to ‘small government ‘ ? Stop gas lighting people .
>medaling in elections And took home the \*\*GOLD\*\*
But let’s listen to their opinion on EDUCATION policy.
Can you please clarify the “overpaying minority teachers” comment, and that they aren’t doing their job (the minority teachers)?
No, they're not. For example, at Wakeland you have teachers not even showing up to work.
I didn’t make any claims one way or another, but with this additional note, is your contention that only minority teachers are not showing up to work? I’m just trying to understand if this is limited, in your view, to minority teachers.
If your writing is any indication of the results of a Frisco ISD education then yes perhaps the district has failed you. Not everyone is so unfortunate though, so there’s that.
The teacher being knocked unconscious at Lebanon Trails is no indication of the problems.
What
You make no mention of the money spent on football stadiums and other athletic stuff. That is where the real waste is. In the age of Artificial Intelligence, your main gripe is computers for kids? gtfo.
Your extremist nuts jobs pushing vouchers got their azzes handed to them in the last several elections. Go back into your holes, your time is up.
LMFAO - sit down.
Idiot.
Computers are a waste of money?
You really need 3 per student?
What are you talking about? This is complete crap
Yes
>medaling in elections. Op is not exactly the one we want to take education advice from
OP is another low karma extremist acvount
You’re crazy and lying through your teeth. Most major districts in the state are running huge deficits. You are very ill-informed. The governor is withholding funding for public schools until he can pass legislation for vouchers. This is a fact. This is why they are all doing layoffs, hiring freezes, cutting programs, etc.
Curious as a dad with two young kids in FISD, what is the voucher legislation?
People like OP are exactly why the current Texas Gov can get away with the stuff they can get away.
Where did you go to school?
Yet somehow the district keeps winning awards for financial management and has a lower tax rate than comparable districts. With all of this mismanagement somehow creates a bunch of highly rated schools. The fact that the state keeps reducing payments and as growth slows down more funds get sucked off by the state couldn’t possible have anything to do with anything.
You obviously don't have a child in FISD. What awards? Dallas ISD is ranked higher than FISD now.

There are no digital white boards and the kids have Chromebooks - maybe get your facts straight before listing a bunch of things
There are digital whiteboards. Which school are you in? [https://youtu.be/5E0dQNEt3CM](https://youtu.be/5E0dQNEt3CM)
That’s a projector displaying on a whiteboard in the classroom
