Click to ExpandDirections

This paper discusses public school funding through taxation and how those funds are distributed throughout educational institutions at federal, state, and local levels. The focus area for this paper is the funding of public schools in the State of Texas.

This assignment demonstrates Arizona Professional Administrative Standard 1 with Performance Indicator 4 by placing emphasis on how taxation for educational issues affects schools and the community. Arizona Professional Administrative Standard 2, Performance Indicators 2 and 8, are also met through this paper and discussion about developing effective strategies for policy and working effectively with policy makers.

ISLLC Standard 6 is met in through this assignment’s examination of laws related to education and schooling and political and economic processes that impact schools. ISLLC Standard 6 states a school administrator is an educational leader who promotes the success of all students by understanding, responding to, and influencing the larger political, social, economic, legal, and cultural context. This assignment has developed my knowledge and understanding of: the role of public education in developing and renewing a democratic society and an economically productive nation; the law as related to education and schooling; the political, social, cultural and economic systems and processes that impact schools; and models and strategies of change and conflict resolution as applied to the larger political, social, cultural and economic contexts of schooling. This assignment has also strengthened my resolve to actively participate in the political and policy-making arena in the service of education.
