Austin ISD FY2026-27 Preliminary Reductions Comment Card
Austin ISD has done everything possible to keep budget cuts away from the classroom, but we have reached a point where that’s no longer sustainable. We must now make significant changes, and we are asking our community to help us decide how to do that while protecting what makes our district special.
