## Resource

North Texas is making a bold move with a $10 million investment to revitalize public schools amid statewide budget crises. The funding targets key issues: $2 million to combat chronic absenteeism in Dallas, programs to prevent dropout rates, $250K for reading improvement, and $500K to explore AI in education. This community-driven effort arrives as educators push for state support, proving local action can fill critical gaps when state resources fall short.
