Midway ISD discusses cutting AVID and schedule changes to close projected deficit
Summary
Superintendent Dr. Allen outlined options to address a projected M&O deficit for 2026–27, including reconfiguring middle-school schedules, eliminating AVID, and expanding virtual learning; trustees were presented options for further consideration.
Superintendent Dr. Allen presented a set of proposed measures aimed at closing a projected maintenance and operations (M&O) budget shortfall for the 2026–27 school year. The options discussed include reconfiguring middle-school schedules, eliminating the AVID program, and introducing virtual learning alternatives to reduce costs or generate revenue.
The minutes record staff framing these as proposals to be evaluated prior to final budget adoption in December. Trustees received the information for consideration; no formal direction, motion, or vote on program eliminations occurred at the Nov. 18 meeting. District finance staff previously noted payroll is consuming about 85% of General Fund expenditures, an increase that factors into the budget alignment conversation.
