To pay for it. the special session of the legislature last summer enacted the largest ta x bill in the stat e's hi story. . Not to be outdone. school trustees in the 1.068 local school districts levied t he lar ge st sc hoo l pr oper ty tax increase in hi story -- 5519 million -- for a total tax bill of 54 .1 billion. Locally. the Abernathy ISD's tax levy was increased by 7. 9 percent for 1984- 85 as compared to a 14.3 percent increase for the average school district in Texas. The figures come from the latest issue of " Bench Marks for 1985-86 School · District Budgets in Texas". an ,1 nnu al publi cation of the Texas Re se ar ch Le agu e. an Austin -based. ' e du cati onal co rpo ration e ngaged in governmental research. School budgets adopted last year called for spending 53, 103 per student for current operations. Abernathy's budg et provided for 54.446 . 91 per student based on the 892 students in average daily atte ndance in 1983-84. Four of each five of these dollars were spe nt for salaries. Statewide. payroll expense averaged 52.487 per student. as compared to 53.365 in Abernathy ISO. Pilyroll expense is a combinati on of salar y levels and staffing patterns. The a ve rage salary for classroom teachers paid by Abernathy ISD in 1983-84 was 520 .837. The average among all school districts in Texas was S20. 11 7 per classroom teacher. There was an average of one teacher for 9.9 students in Abernathy ISO compared to a statewide pupil-teacher ratio of 1 to 16.2. Because of small classes. especially at the high school level . and abbreviated teaching sched- . ules. many classes have more than the average number of students. The new law requires no more than 22 student s in kindergarten. first. or second grade classes next year . School property tax rates in 1984-85 'Iaverage $0.622 per SIOO of market value (selling price). The school tax on a property selling· for SIOO.OOO was S612 in the average school district. Loca ll y. the rate on market value in Abernathy ISD was $0.689 or 5689 on a property selling for SI00,OOO. If the property were a homestead or owned by a senior citizen. the school tax would be less because of various exemptions . Open-space land tha t qualified would be valued on its productivity value rather than market value. Revenue lost from exemption s totaled 5780 million. which was 599.5 million more than the total for the previous year . To balance school budgets. the revenue loss from exemptions was imposed upon other taxpayers in the 'school district. . As compared to the billion-dollar increase in state aid last year. only 5129 million more state funds will be distributed to schools next year. Only 492 districts will get more; the other 576 districts will receive less. This strategy to equalize presupposes that local property taxes will remain about the same. However. the large property tax increase last year . the repod concludes. substantially negated the equalization improvement that the legislature tried to achieve.

Texas Beseareh League Report On Taxes '

State aid to local schools increased by S I billion last year to a total of 54.6 billion. To pay for it . the special sess ion of the legislature last summer enacted the largest tax bill in the state's history. .

Not to be outdone. school trustees in the 1.068 local school districts levied the la rge st schoo l property tax increase in history -- 5519 million -- for a total tax bill of 54 .1 billion.

Locally. the Abernathy ISD's tax levy was increased by 7.9 percent for 1984-85 as compared to a 14.3 percent increase for the average school district in Texas.

The figures come from the latest issue of " Bench Marks for 1985-86 School ·District Budgets in Texas". an ,1 nnu a l publication of the Texas Re search Leagu e . an Austin -based. ' edu cational corporation e ngaged in governmental research.

School budgets adopted last year called for spending 53 ,103 per student for current operations. Abernathy's budge t provided for 54.446 .91 per student based on the 892 students in average daily attendance in 1983-84.

Four of each five of these dollars were spent for salaries. Statewide. payroll expense averaged 52.487 per student. as compared to 53.365 in Abernathy ISO. Pilyroll expense is a combination of salary levels and staffing patterns .

The a verage salary for classroom teachers paid by Abernathy ISD in 1983-84 was 520 .837 . The average among all school districts in Texas was S20. 11 7 per classroom teacher.

There was an average of one teacher for 9.9 students in Abernathy ISO compared to a statewide pupil-teacher

ratio of 1 to 16.2 . Because of small classes. especially at the high school level . and abbreviated teaching sched-

. ules. many classes have more than the average number of students. The new law requires no more than 22 students in kindergarten . first . or second grade classes next year.

School property tax rates in 1984-85 'Iaverage $0.622 per SIOO of market value (selling price) . The school tax on a property selling· for SIOO.OOO was S612 in the average school district. Loca lly. the rate on market value in Abernathy ISD was $0.689 or 5689 on a property selling for SI00,OOO.

If the property were a homestead or owned by a senior citizen. the school tax would be less because of various exemptions . Open-space land that qualified would be valued on its productivity value rather than market value.

Revenue lost from exemption s totaled 5780 million. which was 599.5 million more than the total for the previous year . To balance school budgets. the revenue loss from exemptions was imposed upon other taxpayers in the 'school district. .

As compared to the billion-dollar increase in state aid last year. only 5129 million more state funds will be distributed to schools next year. Only 492 districts will get more; the other 576 districts will receive less. This strategy to equalize presupposes that local property taxes will remain about the same. However. the large property tax increase last year . the repod concludes. substantially negated the equalization improvement that the legislature tried to achieve.

of ··P.T. Barn\lm and the Greatest Show on Earth." Mona Toler still remembed seeing "Long, Long Trailer"; Hoppy Toler remembers seeing "Texas" starring Rock Hudson and Elizabeth Taylor; and June Lambert ,remembers seeing "Gone With the Wind." The !lchool officials let the entire school out to see the show, since it was thought to teach a historical story of the Civil. War. The hoopla from Hollywood was tremendous, and it day it showed in Abernathy was a very exciting day.

Of course. the prople who managed the theater also have some interesting stories to tell. Rudolph Struve and T.B. Stone's son ran the concession stand and Mr. and Mrs. George Reed were the managers of the theater.

Certain rituals took place in the theater including the dating couples sitting at the back. Hoppy Toler recollects meeting a girl from New Deal every Saturday in the theater for around three months for dates. One day he saw here in daylight and she was freckled. He remem· bers being very shocked. because he had never seen here in the daylight before. Mona Toler recalls seeing her boyfriend with another girl in the back of the theater and not being too pleased.

Dating was not the only interest­ing thing taking place in the Nu-Vue. Keith Ellis remembers going into Robert's Drugstore and buying bean shooters with his friends. Then they would sit in the back of the theater and pot people in the head with beans, Mr. Reed would then regularly shut down the movie and take up all the bean shooters.
