If you think those taxes are going back in to the education system, i suggest you follow the trail. Roads, utilities, ADMINISTRATIVE COST are way up the tax chain before education.. A portion of your taxes (in newer developing) neighborhoods / Covenant controlled. Go to paying off the bonds and loans the developers took out. They also pay for road upkeep within the development. A buyer in an already developed neighborhood will pay less in taxes than one who purchased at the beginning of the build.
Well, unless the county is lying, then my tax statement tells me exactly what is going where. About 1/3 goes to maintaining roads and drainage, about 1/3 goes to schools, and the rest goes to the city, the county, some parks project, and a roads renovation project.
