Back to School, Back to Reality, As AISD Faces Huge Budget Deficit
The largest public education system in Central Texas, the Austin Independent School District, educates 81% of Austin-area students and is the seventh-largest employer in the area. But why is it operating with a $78 million budget deficit, and what can the district do to climb out of their financial hole? Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by Superintendent Matias Segura — himself a product of AISD schools — to talk all things budget, back to school, and his goals for the district’s future.
We’d like to thank Tecovas, who makes our favorite Western wear in town, for being our exclusive launch sponsor.
