Keller ISD just approved a hefty $346 million budget for the 2026-27 school year, featuring step raises for teachers and 1% bumps for all staff, plus a projected surplus. The district’s key funds — operations, debt, and nutrition — are all on track, with food services getting a slight boost from a new vendor. Despite pending property value updates, officials are confident in revenue forecasts. The board praised the finance team for balancing the budget, while homeowners see a small tax hike due to rising home values — all while prioritizing staff with increased healthcare contributions. It’s a smart, stable plan setting the stage for a strong next school year.
