Board Work Session | November 5, 2026

Cypress-Fairbanks ISD Board of Trustees work session, November 5, 2026, reviewed action items for the November 9 regular meeting. The board discussed approving the district’s 2026 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report and auditor’s report for the year ended June 30, 2026. The auditor reported an unmodified (clean) opinion and no control deficiencies. The general fund ended the year with $520.2 million in fund balance after a $29.4 million decrease; the transcript does not record a vote on the report during this work session. Consent items scheduled for consideration included quarterly budget amendments and bid, contract, and purchase-order recommendations, including a certificate lifecycle management/public key infrastructure quote. The board also asked about marketing services under item 7G3: two companies had been selected for a pool, with funding to be allocated as services are determined; no dollar amounts or contract details were stated. Temporary construction easements for the North Harris County Regional Water Authority and an easement for Harris County Improvement District No. 14 were also on the agenda. No procurement-related votes or awards were recorded in the transcript.

Other discussion covered formative student assessment results, student screen-time guidance and digital safety, and the proposed 2027–28 instructional calendar. The board also discussed proposed revisions to district policies on facility naming and library materials, including parental access and administrative follow-up requests for librarian feedback and circulation data. The transcript ends with the board moving into closed session; it does not document action on the listed items.
