In January, Dripping Springs ISD officials announced a community information series, Taxpayer Tuesdays, with the goal of inviting community members to learn about student programs as well as district operations and finances.
For the 2023-24 school year, district leaders will host eight Taxpayer Tuesdays, held on the first Tuesday of every month with the exception of March.
Each Taxpayer Tuesday will focus on a different topic, and presentations made during these events will be recorded and made available online.
Topics will include, in order:
- The board of trustees governance
- School finance
- Recapture
- Career and technical education and special funding
- Facilities and bond update
- Demographics and growth
- Operations
- Budgeting
Each Taxpayer Tuesday will begin at 9:30 a.m. and last until 11 a.m. Attendees are encouraged to reserve a space in the meeting and arrive by 9:15 a.m. to receive a visitor’s badge.
