CCISD audit shows less revenue per student Clear Creek ISD spends less per student than peer districts and the state average but grades slightly better in performance, according to an efficiency audit presented to the board of trustees Sept. 25. Two-minute impact The audit, conducted by Houston-based accounting firm Weaver, was carried out as part of the requirements for the district holding a voter-ap- proval tax rate election in November. The audit’s results are based on the district’s data from fiscal year 2021-22 and compared the district to a number of similar-sized districts. CCISD receives less money per student based on demographic differences and local revenue, among other factors. The results showed CCISD in many ways has different student demographics than peer districts but still grades out slightly better in its accountabil- ity ratings from the state.

Clear Creek ISD’s board of trustees could consider a good cause exception to a new state law that is designed to improve safety. The gist At an Oct. 9 board workshop meeting, CCISD trustees discussed the idea of a good cause exception to House Bill 3 during the closed session portion of its meeting. HB 3 was approved in the latest state legislative session earlier in the year and, among other things, requires armed security officers to be present at all campuses during school hours, according to the bill. School districts in Texas are allowed to pass other similar plans or claim a good cause exception to the bill if they can demonstrate they do not have the funds or personnel to fulfill the requirements.
