[QUOTE="Lammie, post: 257036, member: 3306"] I always heard that Texas Lottery money wasnt really going to schools like it was supposed to, but rather, to the General Fund. I haven't researched it lately. I did see the new ads boasting how much money went to education, but my counter to that was that it was money that some people were using to buy scratch-offs instead of school supplies! Or lunches! I don't know the real well-being of students in Texas hasn't taken a back seat to teacher salaries and test scores. My son's schools haven't had recess in two years because that used that time to study for the TAKS, the we complain because our kids are getting fat and that their behavior is out of control! Duh! Let 'em have 30 minutes a day to run off some of those twinkies! I have actually complained to my son's school that kids aren't allowed any free time and that when they do have it, they aren't allowed to play games! Because "someone might get hurt!" It boggles my mind! :roll: [/QUOTE]
