I am in the process of moving to Dallas now for my job. The public schools here are crazy how nice they are (especially out in the burbs). I'm going to hate paying my new property tax at first, but it will all even out.

I doubt any high school in La even has 60 mil much less able to spend it on a football stadium.

I think the key is the size of these districts in TX. Moving from BR to the North ATL suburbs, I was awestruck by the size of the schools. My HS in BR was about 1K. Our cluster HS here is at 3K.

I think Allen is like twice that. It's insane, but they seem to have the tax base for it.

I went to high school in San Antonio. It was pretty small at 2,800 but there was a school in the district that was over 6,000. Freaking behemoth. Naturally, their football team destroyed everyone in the district in its heyday. I think my alma mater is better though.....? The QB from Oklahoma that won over Bama this past year is from my old high school
