About The Red Apple Project

SCHOOL FACTS SIMPLY
The Red Apple Project was created by Americans for Prosperity-Texas to provide SCHOOL FACTS SIMPLY. We equip parents, teachers, businesses and taxpayers with not easily accessible school data (PEIMS).

Our Message: We are the student's and teacher's best friend because we want more money spent on instruction. Students and teachers are not the priority in many ISDs. Texas has many wonderful schools and wonderful, dedicated teachers. We can cut education spending without eliminating teachers or classrooms.

Here is a fact that you don't hear often: Over the past 10 years, Texas has funded K-12 public education at a rate of five times the increase in student enrollment. We challenge the PTA, teachers unions and news reporters to share these facts, but instead they continually beat the "more money drum" and belittle organizations like ours asking that more money be spent on instruction.

Don't just believe those beating the 'more money drum' and don't just believe us; The Texas Comptroller’s website is the best source of factual information on education spending.
