Cypress-Fairbanks Schools Face Big Vote | Houston News
Description
Cypress-Fairbanks ISD is asking voters to approve a 12-cent tax hike and a $1.63 billion bond package this November, aimed at tackling declining enrollment, inflation, and unfunded mandates. The funds would cover facility upgrades, tech, buses, and athletic facilities — but a major chunk goes toward teacher pay, campus safety, and instructional materials. Supporters argue state funding is inadequate and the tax increase is modest — about the cost of two lattes a month — while critics question the necessity of non-core programs. With a split community and individual ballot measures, voters will decide whether to step up and fund what they believe their schools need to thrive.
