CEC Presents Efficiency Assessment Findings

The committee spent months analyzing data in order to present to the Board their findings on ways to increase facility efficiency across the district.

At the Oct. 7 Board Work Session, the Community Efficiency Committee (CEC) presented to the LISD Board of Trustees their findings on potential ways to increase facility efficiency across the district.

In a letter to families impacted by the findings, Superintendent of Schools Dr. Lori Rapp said, "As you look at districts all around us, lower enrollment in public schools coupled with the lack of action to increase the Basic Allotment by the Legislature is resulting in challenging financial constraints for our district and public schools statewide."

She continued, "In response, we are working to balance budget constraints and increase efficiency while maintaining high-quality learning environments where students and staff can thrive."

The CEC’s assessment of data identified a preliminary group of 20 campuses for the Board and district administration to further review for boundary adjustments and/or facility retirement.

The Board will now take time to review the committee’s findings. These findings are not a decision, but rather a preliminary group of campuses that will be further reviewed by the Board and district leaders. Schools identified for further review will have community feedback opportunities for families to ask questions and provide input. All of this will take place before any decision is made. 

The Board plans to share determinations for the 2025-26 school year by this December.

The preliminary group of campuses for further review include:
