Board approves $150,000 for PK–12 school supplies
Summary
Presidio ISD trustees approved a $150,000 budget for student supplies for 2026–27 to provide higher‑quality backpacks and materials after parents praised last year’s program; the motion passed unanimously.
Superintendent Carmen Rubner requested the board increase the district allotment for PK–12 school supplies to $150,000 so the district could purchase improved backpacks and supplies. Trustee Jeremy Velasquez moved to approve the $150,000 allocation and Trustee Jaime Sanchez seconded; the board approved the motion 7–0.
Supt. Rubner said parents had expressed appreciation for the prior year’s supplies and recommended increasing the allotment to improve quality. The funding will be allocated district‑wide for PK–12 materials; the board did not specify a detailed vendor or procurement schedule in the meeting minutes.
