After significant cost reductions districtwide throughout the year, the Austin ISD Board of Trustees approved the 2025–26 budget with a $19.7 million deficit, — a steep reduction from the prior year adopted deficit.
The details: This budget includes $ 1.63 billion in revenue, including $715.5 million in recapture and $939 million in operating expenses.
We’re inviting families, staff, students and community members to join us for important workshops this July to help shape the future of our schools.
Just last week, Governor Greg Abbott signed HB 1481 into law, bringing a new statewide policy to schools that prohibits students from using personal electronics, including cell phones, during the school day beginning in the 2025-26 school year.
Dear Austin ISD family,
Today was a difficult day as I notified our Central Staff of our reorganization. This restructure was necessary to align our administrative functions and reduce administrative costs while acknowledging the size of our district and our current needs.
We educate 73,000 students and every single person in this organization plays a role in their educational experience. The impact of this restructure and every individual affected will be felt.
Summer is officially here, but Austin ISD isn’t slowing down. Welcome to our first Board Bulletin of the season.
Student Support Services is proud to host the 2025 Summer Graduation Ceremony on Friday, August 8, 2025, at 6:30 p.m. at the Austin ISD Performing Arts Center, located at 1500 Barbara Jordan Blvd, Austin, TX, 78723.
This special event provides an opportunity for students who were unable to complete graduation requirements in the spring to walk the stage and receive their high school diploma with the recognition they deserve.
