New Caney ISD teachers with at least three years of experience will receive a $2,500-$5,000 annual raise with funding approved by state lawmakers in June.
The overview
House Bill 2—which was signed into law by Gov. Greg Abbott in June—will bring about $8.4 billion in funding to Texas’ nearly 9,000 public schools over the next two years, as previously reported by Community Impact. Nearly half of that funding will be spent on raises for educators and support staff, such as bus drivers, janitors and librarians.
On July 21, NCISD’s board of trustees unanimously approved—with trustee Dennis Alters and assistant secretary Angela Tompkins absent—revisions to the district’s 2025-26 compensation plan to account for the HB 2 employee raises.
