NISD Board Meeting 9-29-2026

At the Northside Independent School District Board meeting on September 29, 2026, the board received updates on the 2022 bond program and preparations for a proposed 2026 bond election scheduled for November 3. The superintendent said the Citizens Bond Advisory Committee had reviewed progress on 2022 projects, including gym and cafeteria renovations at Esparza, and would review projects proposed for the 2026 bond. A speaker referenced a proposed $886 million in additional funding. No new bond authorization or project award was made at this meeting. The consent agenda passed unanimously after a grant-related resolution was removed because it was no longer needed.

The board approved a motion authorizing an agreement with TASBY Executive Search Services to conduct a comprehensive search for the next superintendent; members debated whether to interview search firms and consider additional firms before selecting one, but the motion carried, with the vote count unclear in the transcript. Following closed session, the board also unanimously approved motions concerning legal matters, including ratifying the district’s filing of counterclaims in a special-education proceeding. No contract amount for the search firm was stated.
