Katy ISD adopts $1.15B budget despite projected $24.9M shortfall for FY 2025-26 

Although House Bill 2 from the 89th legislative session introduced $28.9 million in funding for Katy ISD, which would have otherwise grown the shortfall to about $35 million, district officials said the impact has been largely offset by inflation, rapid enrollment growth and a lack of state-funded cost adjustments in recent years.
