At a Feb. 23 meeting, trustees approved a resolution to compensate all district staff for Jan. 31-Feb. 3.
Human Resources Director Willie Watson said the Texas Education Code allows teacher compensation exceptions in the case of extreme weather events.
He said the resolution will have no additional cost to the district, as it had already budgeted to pay staff for those days.
At the same meeting, trustees also approved the use of banked instructional minutes to cover two of the missed days. For the remaining two days, the district will apply for a waiver from the Texas Education Agency.
Chief Financial Officer Jennifer Land said the district does not anticipate having to use any of its bad weather makeup days if the TEA waivers are approved.
