Board Recap Cover Photo - Sept 18

After each Regular Board of Trustees meeting, we share a brief summary of recognitions, presentations, and items covered during the meeting. Highlights from the September 18 Board Meeting include:

  • Adoption of the 2025-2026 Tax Rate – The adopted property tax rate at $1.1052 per $100 of taxable value is the same as last year. This is the district’s lowest overall tax rate since 1989. The maintenance and operations portion, at seventy-five and a half cents, is the lowest since 1984, and the debt service rate has remained steady at thirty-five cents since 2016. It’s also important to note that nearly thirty percent of our residential accounts qualify for the over-65 levy freeze.
  • Renewal of agreement with the City of Dallas to provide School Resource Officers at campuses within Dallas city limits
  • 2025–26 District Improvement Plan presentation
  • Student, staff and community recognitions and celebrations
