Projected budget deficit widens as local property values decline (En español)

We’re back with another budget update! When we last checked in, we shared that the district was working to tackle a $92 million deficit over three years. 

Since then we’ve gotten new information from the Travis Central Appraisal District that means we could be facing a budget deficit between $105–121 million for the 2025–26 school year.

Why it matters: A bigger budget deficit means our savings will run out faster if we don't reduce spending — so we’ll have to make deeper cuts sooner than we’d expected.
