Why we fundraise
The state of Texas takes nearly 70% of HPISD’s tax dollars and redistributes them to other districts through what’s known as the “recapture” or “Robin Hood” program. Because of this, without private fundraising, our district would actually have less to spend per student than many neighboring districts — affecting everything from teacher pay and recruitment to the programs we can offer.
Thanks to the dedicated fundraising efforts of nonprofit groups supporting HPISD schools, like the HPHS PTA, an estimated $6 million annual budget gap is successfully covered each year. This crucial fundraising support allows us to provide an exceptional education for our students and offer competitive salaries to attract and retain great teachers.
