๐ What would Proposition A fund?
Proposition A would provide additional resources for locally identified priorities across Socorro ISD, including teacher and staff compensation, student programs, safety and security, student devices, and HVAC and bus replacements.
House Bill 2 creates new revenue for the district, but it does not provide enough to sustain operations. Proposition A would help close the gap and provide resources for these district priorities.

๐ซ School Finance Quick Fact: Texas school districts have two tax rates.
The M&O rate funds day-to-day operations, including teacher and staff compensation, student programs, supplies and maintenance. The I&S rate pays debt on bonds for construction, renovations and other capital projects.
Proposition A would provide additional M&O funding for teacher and staff compensation, student programs, safety and security, technology, HVAC, and bus replacements.

๐ฅ Socorro ISD is one of the largest employers in the community, with more than 5,300 employees who could receive a salary increase through Proposition A.
As health insurance premiums continue to climb, teachers could take home less without the salary increase Prop A would provide. Combined with larger class sizes, lower compensation could also contribute to increased teacher turnover.
Prop A includes $15 million to increase teacher and staff compensation.
