Regular Board Meeting | November 10, 2026 | Tomball ISD

At its November 10, 2026 regular meeting, the Tomball ISD Board of Trustees unanimously adopted its legislative priorities for the 90th Texas Legislative Session. Trustees emphasized the need for adequate state school funding that better accounts for enrollment and rising operating costs, including safety requirements, special education, transportation, and full-day pre-K, and advocated for continued local control. The board also approved the district’s 2026–27 investment policies, investment officers, broker-dealer list, and investment training providers; these actions establish the district’s investment framework rather than award a contract. A private resale offer from RPG Investments LLC was approved, with discussion noting recovery of back taxes and a return of the property to the tax rolls.

The board approved using design-build for rebuilding Tomball High School’s electrical switchgear, with an estimated cost of $200,000–$250,000; the procurement method was approved, while a contract will return to the board separately. It also approved a $386,006.56 increase to the EleSor Constructors contract for Tomball Innovation Center Building 4, bringing the contract to $2,932,806.56, funded by 2021 bond funds. Using 2025 bond funds, trustees unanimously awarded RFP 10006 to Hellas Construction for athletic improvements at Creekside Park and Tomball Memorial High School for $5,199,180, including a $650,000 contingency, and awarded RFP 10006 to CFI Mechanical for HVAC replacements at several district facilities for $4,951,290, including a $200,000 contingency. Trustees discussed oversight of contingency spending on the athletic project.
