And look at the school report card. If you click on the link below you can access all the information on test results for our district or any other in the state. Check it out. Our performance is the highest in the county and the state. So is Princeton High school's and guess what -- their per pupil cost is higher too.

Money well spent. Not saying that money fixes all -- clearly the Abbott districts have proved that. But when you spend the money in a place where kids are able to take advantage of the opportunities presented (i.e., good strong parent involvement) you DO get good results.

I think the important point above is GOOD PARENT INVOLVEMENT.
