The district is prioritizing academic success and construction; facilities growth and planning; student safety and support; college, career and military readiness; and employee recruitment and retention. About 62% of the district’s budget is allocated toward instruction, followed by district operations, according to a June 25 budget adoption public hearing presentation.
CISD trustees also approved a 3% midpoint salary increase for all district employees in May, as previously reported by Community Impact. The Texas Association of School Board recommended moving to a midpoint salary increase following a compensation review of the district. This move provides a more equitable distribution of resources within each of the pay groups, according to a district news release.
