HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH

FROM KATHIE: The Cypress area is experiencing a real estate event like never seen before. It is a seller’s market, and while sales are slowing a bit due to increasing interest rates, experts say it does not appear that is going to change for quite a while. Read more about what is happening in this area in our front-page story on Page 24. Kathie Snyder, GENERAL MANAGER

FROM DANICA: For the 11th consecutive year, teachers in Cy-Fair ISD will see a pay increase in 2022-23. Substitutes and hourly workers will also take home larger paychecks, but considering ination rates and added burdens on sta since the start of the pandemic, many are questioning whether this is enough to keep the district fully staed moving forward.
