# Workshop Board Meeting | November 9, 2026 | Tomball ISD

Tomball ISD Board of Trustees workshop meeting, November 9, 2026. The board reviewed items slated for the November 10 regular meeting; no action was taken on the business agenda at this workshop. Procurement and facilities items included a proposed $386,006.56 increase to the Elleser Constructors contract for work at Tomball Innovation Center Building 4, raising the total to $2,932,806.56 from 2021 bond funds. The increase covers a dry fire-suppression system required by the City of Tomball for use of the covered area. Trustees discussed the cost and the circumstances behind the requirement, with one trustee expressing reservations. The board was also scheduled to consider using design-build for replacement of Tomball High School’s electrical switchgear.

The next-day agenda included a proposed award of RFP 100426 to Hellas Construction for athletic improvements at Creekside Park and Tomball Memorial High School: $5,199,180, including $650,000 in owner contingency, from 2025 bond funds. Trustees discussed the contingency and requested that the board president be consulted and the board updated if more than $50,000 is used. A proposed $4,951,290 CFI Mechanical contract, including $200,000 contingency, would replace HVAC equipment at four district sites using 2025 bond funds. The CFO reported $18.9 million in investment income for FY 2025–26 and said there were no proposed changes to investment policy or strategies; annual resolutions on the policy review, broker-dealer list, and training providers were also scheduled for consideration. Other agenda items included a $7,200 school PTO donation and course-catalog additions for teacher-education and cybersecurity programs. The workshop concluded with a unanimous adjournment vote.
