## Resource

Orange County Public Schools is pouring $119 million into settling annual lawsuits with Walt Disney World over property taxes — money that could return to teacher pay if the final cost is lower. But with declining enrollment slashing state funding and Florida’s low teacher pay making recruitment harder, the district is under pressure. Teachers’ unions are demanding transparency, pushing for Disney to drop lawsuits — especially as Disney’s parks division reports strong profits — and urging voters to renew a critical one-mill property tax. The district says 90% of that tax funds staff, but unions argue it’s used to fill positions, not raise salaries. Complicating matters, rising healthcare costs are straining the budget as contract negotiations stall, forcing tough choices to keep the current plan afloat.
