Great news! HB 2 (Buckley & Creighton) has been signed into law, ushering in significant reforms to Texas public education and school finance. This bill allocates an additional $8.5 billion to public education, increasing per-student base funding, raising teacher and support staff salaries, enhancing special education services, and early childhood learning opportunities. Thank you to Representative Brad Buckley & Brandon Creighton for their dedication to improving education in Texas. #TXLege #EducationReform #HB2 #TexasEducation #TeacherExcellence #SchoolFinance (fb)
