''The Texas Promise'' follows the debate over the direction of Texas public education and its impact on the nation. With a lawsuit brought against the state by a collection of school districts claiming that the cutting of over 5 billion dollars from public education was unconstitutional, and a variety of contested bills up for passage in the 83rd Legislature, the film explores what is at stake for students in the Texas school system and what the policy decisions might mean for the future of Texas. The film uses cinéma vérité, interviews, news clips, and animation. It features national experts in the fields of education, sociology and business. The film covers the day-to-day actions and decisions by legislators in the 83rd Legislative session. The film also shares the stories of families and educators living in the state.
