The Texas House introduced its version of a school voucher program last week - a plan that includes small boosts in teacher pay and school funding. House Bill 1 also caps participation and state funding for the voucher program at about half the 60,000 students and $8,000 per student set by the Senate version passed earlier this month during a special session called by Gov. Greg Abbott The proposal by Rep. Brad Buckley, R-Killeen, would give parents 75 percent of the average amount that each school receives per student in state and local funding to use for private school tuition or other approved expenses. The bill would limit the number of students eligible to participate in the voucher program to 25,000 in the first year, giving priority to low-income and disabled students.
