The money the state pays for education comes from the general fund, not any special dedicated funding source.
You can say you pay $3,721.23 per year in property taxes to the schools, but you can't say how much you pay in state taxes to the schools.
But you do pay taxes to the state of Louisiana that then go into the general fund, right?
You may not be able to calculate a precise dollar value but doesn't that just highlight the opacity of the state's funding formula?

Saying "my taxes fund public schools, since I don't use them, I should get it back" is meaningless drivel unless you can attach a dollar amount to it.
