Tamoria was a star in the Capitol and so generous to me and my staff from day one. I am forever grateful. Even more importantly, she was a stellar person. We will all miss her. God bless her family and friends. RIP my friend. #txlege
I'm really sorry about this:
Chair @RepHaroldDutton confirms the death of his longtime aide & Texas Capitol veteran Tamoria Jones:
"She became my Chief of Staff and then she became the Chief of the Chiefs of Staff," he said. She died in Houston, a city she loved so well #txlege

Given the financial tumult ahead, it would be smart if districts share budget projections for AT LEAST 3 yrs out. That means a 22-23 budget has figures for 23-24 & 24-25.
Our forecasts suggest spending is way up for this yr, but 24-25 will be ugly.
Worth taking a look at yours.
In today's #edfinance newsletter:
School boards are facing financial conditions unlike any before. The spending decisions they make today will have lasting effects on tomorrow’s kids. Why is the forecast so complicated?
