Executive Director's Corner

After the long summer, we all welcome cooler temperatures at NYOS. The whitetop, field and playground don’t feel quite so stifling now that autumn has arrived.

We celebrated a true legislative win for charter schools this summer. In August, the Texas legislature passed House Bill 21. The school finance bill included up to $60 million for charter school facilities financing - for the FIRST TIME EVER!! We expect it will make up about $150 of the $1,400 difference that currently exists between funding for a NYOS student versus funding for an AISD student. The funding is available starting in the 2018-2019 school year. NYOS can use the funds to pay rent, utilities and loan payments for land and buildings.
