Board reviews 2026–27 budget calendar; athletic and other stipends to increase
Summary
CFO Paul Neuhoff presented the 2026–27 budget calendar and proposed stipend changes that will increase athletic stipends to TASB-recommended amounts and add roughly $35,750 for new coaching and activity positions; the board incorporated these amounts into planning for the 2026–27 budget.
The board reviewed the district's 2026–27 budget calendar and a proposed stipend schedule. Paul Neuhoff told trustees that athletic stipends will increase to the full TASB-recommended amounts, completing a previously phased-in change, and that additional stipend costs—driven by new junior high coaching positions and adjustments for music, theatre and UIL roles—add approximately $35,750 to the budget.
Neuhoff described the earlier phase-in approach and said the total increase from completing the athletic stipends and other adjustments will be funded within the 2026–27 budget. The board accepted the calendar and discussed how the stipend increases will be reflected in upcoming budget adoption steps.
