Budget

Each year, the district meticulously prepares and submits the General Operating Fund and Debt Service Fund budgets for approval by the Board of Trustees. We adhere to the strict requirements outlined in the Texas Education Code and follow the Texas Education Agency's Financial Accountability Systems Resource Guide guidelines.

The proposed budget is presented at the function level and undergoes a public hearing. It must be adopted by the Board before June 30, marking the end of the fiscal year.

 

Appropriation amounts are recorded in our accounting system following the board's approval. This marks the start of careful monitoring of expenditures and encumbrances against the approved budget, which ensures transparent financial management and adherence to our fiscal allocations.

 

We proudly announce that our 2023–2024 Budget Book has been recognized with the Meritorious Budget Award for its clear and comprehensive presentation. This accolade underscores our commitment to transparency and excellence in financial management.
