Schools
In a speech delivered to the Lottery Commission in August of 2009, Susan Castillo, State of Oregon Superintendent, said “...the budget for 2009-2011 is below the level our schools need to maintain current programs.”
No one can argue that Oregon's schools are suffering. In conservative estimates, OCTA will generate tens of millions of dollars for the for the state's General Fund. Looking at the pie chart below; education is clearly the largest recipient of resources. Education makes up 54 percent of the allocations from the fund. Quite frankly; schools stand to receive the most in 2011 if sensible law like OCTA were enacted.
