The Karnack Independent School District Board of Trustees voted unanimously July 28 to approve the district 2025–26 compensation plan following a presentation by Amy Campbell of the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB).

The minutes show the superintendent asked that the item be held for discussion after closed session, but the board ultimately acted on the plan during open session.
The board did not provide a line-item breakdown of which staff positions receive the 5% increase in the minutes. The motion passed unanimously and the minutes record the new superintendent salary as $112,200.
