Detailed explanation-1: -Recapture, also known as Robin Hood, allows the State of Texas to remove local property tax dollars from public school districts. Legislators then use these dollars to help balance the rest of the state budget.
Detailed explanation-2: -The goal of Chapter 41 of the Education Code, more commonly known as the Robin Hood Plan, is to redistribute property wealth across school districts to allow for more equal opportunities in education.
Detailed explanation-3: -If a school district is able to collect more than its entitlement, the state “recaptures” or collects that excess revenue. Those recaptured dollars are then redistributed to fund other school districts and charter schools. Recaptured dollars become part of the state aid to schools.
Detailed explanation-4: -Texas’ reliance on Robin Hood has ballooned since it was established in 1993 in response to lawsuits that illuminated the deep inequities baked into state funding.
