“ARTICLE 7: EDUCATION
Sec. 1. SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE OF SYSTEM OF PUBLIC FREE SCHOOLS. A general diffusion of knowledge being essential to the preservation of the liberties and rights of the people, it shall be the duty of the Legislature of the State to establish and make suitable provision for the support and maintenance of an efficient system of public free schools.” – Texas Constitution

Governor Perry is big on the death penalty, but I’m going to do my bit to try and keep him from killing the dreams of Texas students any more so than he’s already done. And for class size notes, the Texas state capitol requires one adult per 10 children on tour. I guess student-teacher ratios DO matter.
