September 21, 2026 Brazosport ISD

The Brazosport Independent School District board meeting on September 21, 2026, included several procurement and budget-related discussions. The board approved the issuance and sale of $13.56 million in unlimited tax refunding bonds (Taxable Series 2026A) to refinance existing debt, with a single bid received from Amig Bank at an interest rate of 5.20%. The bond issuance aims to align debt service with state funding and local collections. Additionally, the board adopted the 2026 tax rate ordinance at $0.8907 per $100 of taxable value, maintaining a rate below the no-new-revenue threshold and reflecting a continued commitment to fiscal responsibility. Facilities updates were provided, highlighting ongoing capital improvement projects including roof replacements, building renovations, and a new transportation building scheduled for completion in February 2027. The board also approved the Brazosport ISD virtual hybrid program, expanding virtual and hybrid learning options in compliance with new state rules effective December 2026. Other agenda items included the adoption of updated student outcome goals and board operating procedures. No other contract awards or vendor selections were reported during the meeting.
