Overview: The Carroll Independent School District (ISD) Board meeting on June 23, 2025, was dominated by discussions surrounding the district’s financial challenges, projected budget deficits, and legislative impacts. The board is considering a Voter Approval Tax Rate Election (VADER) to address a projected $5 million budget shortfall for the 2025-2026 school year, seeking to generate approximately $3.5 to $4 million annually without raising the tax rate. This decision comes as the district grapples with being one of the lowest funded per student in Texas and is expected to send $28 million back to Austin due to the state’s Robinhood recapture system.
