Waco ISD budget update: staff reports roughly $7.5 million shortfall for current year
Summary
District staff told trustees the current-year budget faces about a $7.5 million deficit and that the adopted budget reflected about an $8 million shortfall; the board reviewed the update but no formal budget action is recorded in the transcript.
At a regular meeting of the Waco Independent School District Board of Trustees, the board reviewed a budget update during which district staff said the current‑year shortfall is roughly $7.5 million and that the adopted budget showed about an $8 million deficit.
"It looks pretty much like it did last time. Again, we are looking at about a 7 and a half million dollar deficit in the current year. The adopted budget was $8,000,000 deficit," a district staff member said during the budget discussion.
Trustees did not record a formal motion or vote on budget revisions in the transcript. The meeting record does not specify specific cost reductions, revenue actions, or timeline for approving budget amendments.
The transcript does not identify whether the shortfall projections include pending receipts, one‑time funds, or assumptions about state funding; staff did not provide a line‑item breakdown in the recorded remarks.
