Foundation School Program (FSP)

The Foundation School Program (FSP) is the primary source of state funding for Texas school districts. The program is administered by the Texas Education Agency (TEA). The FSP, in its current form, is meant to ensure that all school districts, regardless of property wealth, receive "substantially equal access to similar revenue per student at similar tax effort."
