Early voting is underway in an election that includes a measure critical to HISD students and the community: Proposition 1.
Voters will be asked to decide whether to authorize a payment of $162 million in local property tax dollars from HISD to the state by purchasing “attendance credits.” The Proposition 1 ballot language will read:
Authorizing the board of trustees of Houston Independent School District to purchase attendance credits from the state with local tax revenues.
