Goose Creek CISD board adopts 2026–27 budgets, approves 2% general pay increase
Summary
The Goose Creek CISD Board of Trustees adopted the 2026–27 General Fund, Debt Service Fund and Child Nutrition Fund budgets and heard a public hearing outlining a proposed 2% general pay increase for all employees and a planned spend-down of Child Nutrition reserves.
The Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District Board of Trustees voted unanimously on June 1 to adopt the district's 2026–27 proposed budgets for the General Fund, Debt Service Fund and Child Nutrition Fund.
CFO Brigitte Clark presented the budget during a public hearing, telling the board the district proposed "balanced budgets for General Fund & Debt Service Fund" and a "surplus fund balance spend-down for Child Nutrition Fund," and recommended a 2% general pay increase for all employees. The public hearing was adjourned by Board President James “Jim” Campisi at 6:26 p.m.
Trustee Richard Clem moved to adopt the budgets and Mrs. Helen Berrott-Tims seconded; the motion passed with all seven trustees voting in favor. The formal action carried under agenda item 9645. The board record does not specify total dollar figures for the General Fund or Debt Service Fund in the minutes; those amounts were not specified during the recorded presentation.
Board members and staff also received presentations tied to the budget and district priorities during the meeting, including a Career and Technical Education update and a School Health Advisory Council report, which the board heard prior to taking the adoption vote. The district indicated the Child Nutrition Fund will use surplus fund balance to address program needs for the coming year.
