Lawmakers Target Texas Prison School for Makeover — Texas Department of Criminal Justice The Texas Tribune

"As state lawmakers combed the budget this year for cuts to close a multibillion-dollar shortfall, some leaders focused on a line item that usually draws little attention: the Windham School District, which received more than $128 million in 2010-11 to provide education to inmates in the state’s sprawling prison system.

Lawmakers will most likely cut that number significantly in the 2012-13 budget, and that could be just the beginning of big changes to come."
