Eight years of federal forms filed by the Barbers Hill Education Foundation show it returned just 3 percent of monies it received to the Barbers Hill Independent School District. A specialist suggests the district is using the foundation to evade the state’s “Robin Hood” recapture system. This information was gleaned from Form 990s that the foundation, a nonprofit organization, filed with the Internal Revenue Service. Texas Scorecard reviewed forms filed for the years 2015 to 2021, and 2023, comparing total contributions and grants received in a given year with grants given back to the district. There was no 2022 filing available on the IRS website.
