Cumby Collegiate ISD meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

Cumby Collegiate ISD agendas take up 2027 bond architect, school improvement plan; no minutes yet

Cumby Collegiate ISD scheduled three meetings for the same day, Oct. 15, 2026: a regular board meeting, a public hearing, and a planning meeting. Agendas for all three have been posted. Minutes have not been published for any of them, so the record available this week shows what was up for consideration, not what was decided. No vote tallies, dollar amounts, or outcomes are confirmed in the documents reviewed.

Bond projects: architect and construction method on the agenda

The regular meeting agenda listed two action items tied to the district's 2027 Bond Projects: selection of an architect, and determination of the construction delivery method and prevailing wage rate for those projects. The same agenda listed a discussion of bonding capacity with LiveOak.

Because minutes are not yet available, it is not established whether the board selected an architect, set a delivery method or wage rate, or took any other action on these items. The agenda does not state a bond amount, a project cost, or a construction timeline.

Public hearing on elementary and middle school improvement plan

A separate public hearing was noticed for the same day on a Targeted Improvement Plan for Cumby Collegiate Elementary and Middle School. The agenda describes the hearing as covering that plan and does not include further detail on its contents. The record does not show who spoke at the hearing or what was presented.

Other agenda items

The regular meeting agenda also listed a review of the Annual Emergent Bilingual Program evaluation and Waiver Application, and a proposed trip to Greece in June-July 2027 for the Cumby Collegiate HS HOSA-Global Medical Academy. Both appear as agenda items only; the documents reviewed do not indicate whether either was approved, tabled, or discussed at length.

Planning session and executive session

The third meeting, a planning session, listed an executive session for matters authorized by the Texas Government Code and a planning session. The agenda does not name specific topics for either portion. Under the agenda as posted, no subjects for discussion or decision are identified, and no results are available.

What the record does not show

All three Oct. 15 meetings are documented here as agenda items only. This roundup does not report any decision, vote, contract award, or expenditure as final, because the published record does not establish one. Readers should check the district's official minutes and agenda postings for the authoritative account of what the board acted on.

Coming up

No meetings were listed in the district's upcoming meeting data for the 14 days after Oct. 19, 2026. That absence reflects the information available for this roundup and is not evidence that no meeting will be held. Residents who want to attend or comment should confirm dates and times with the district's posted notices, which remain the authoritative source.

Cumby Collegiate ISD board considers budget, tax rate, and election order

The Cumby Collegiate ISD board met twice in the past week to consider a proposed 2026-27 budget and tax rate, an election order, and planning items. All four meetings were held on the agenda only, and minutes have not yet been published, so no decisions have been reported.

Budget and tax rate

On Aug. 18, the board held a public hearing and a regular meeting to discuss and vote on the proposed 2026-27 budget and tax rate. The proposed total tax rate is $1.08110 per $100 of taxable value, down from last year's adopted rate of $1.173900. The maintenance and operations (M&O) rate is proposed at $0.70110 per $100, which the district says is a 9.70% effective increase. The interest and sinking (I&S) rate is proposed at $0.43000 per $100.

The district notes that the M&O portion will raise more taxes than last year, which will reduce state aid and lower overall M&O revenue. The no-new-revenue tax rate is $1.03110, and the voter-approval rate is $0.84620. The median homestead value is projected to drop from $43,323 to $36,608, and the estimated tax bill on a median home would fall from $508.57 to $414.07.

The regular meeting agenda also included discussion of a facilities master plan and bond proposal, an extracurricular handbook, and LSG training. Administrative reports and a consent agenda covering financial reports and minutes were scheduled.

Trustee election

On Aug. 12, the board held a special meeting to consider and approve a Notice and Order of Election for the Nov. 3, 2026 trustee election. The agenda contained only that action item plus procedural items. No outcome has been reported.

Planning meeting

Also on Aug. 18, the board held a planning meeting that included an executive (closed) session under Texas Government Code sections 551.071, 551.072, 551.074, and 551.087, covering personnel, real estate, and legal matters. The board then reconvened in open session for discussion items and future agenda items. No specific decisions or proposals were listed.

Coming up

No meetings are scheduled in the next 14 days.
