Overview: The Carroll Independent School District Board of Trustees meeting on April 13, 2026, concentrated on issues such as compliance with new state mandates, staff compensation, and major infrastructure developments. A major concern was the unfunded mandate from Senate Bill 546, which requires all district-operated school buses to be equipped with three-point harnesses by September 2029. This requirement presents financial and logistical challenges for the district as it seeks to comply without state funding support.
