    The school district says it doesn’t have the money, the governor says there will always be budget shortfalls so the school district just needs to deal.

    The state collected billions of extra tax dollars that weren’t budgeted for, and those funds are being refunded to tax payers. Um… maybe increase the education budget next time.
