Good evening.
Good evening Madam President, Board Members and Superintendent, Dr. Lance Hent.
Tonight we have the privilege of watching the annual robotics demonstration, but first
we have a special recognition.
First, LEGO League teams research real world problems such as food safety, recycling or
energy and are challenged to develop a solution.
Teams guided by adult coaches design, build and program a robot using LEGO Mindstorms
technology and then they compete on a tabletop playing field worldwide there
are more than 250,000 first Lego League participants and more than 32,000 robots
participants apply math and science concepts they learn critical thinking
along with team building and presentation skills this year the first
Lego League theme was animal allies and the Creech elementary robo creatures
came up with a solution to help increase the rapidly declining bee population. It
is the first Katy ISD elementary school to have its own competitive robotics
team and students work hard for this honor with junior high teams. This group
of ambitious students earned a first place strategy and innovation award at
the South Texas Lego League regionals. Students please come forward when I call
your names Robbie Borge project lead

It takes a lot to do something like this.
Item 6.1
And now I would like to introduce Mr. Mike Outlaw. He's the team's 624 adult mentor of the Cinco Ranch High School
Robotics team and Mr. Steve Adams
Facility coordinator for the Robert R. Shaw STEAM Center who will give us an update on the KDISD robotics team
Thank You madam president board members and superintendent Hint. Well as you can see it's robot time at KISD
It's one of the more exciting times of the year where we've wrapped up a season and get to demonstrate and show off
What we have accomplished for the year and what we're going to pursue and carry on for the future year
There's a lot you see here on the on the on the on the field you see the students you see the robots you hear
Us talk about the STEM Center
But what I wanted to talk just a few minutes about with the board is one of our other main
main sponsors of the team and that is our sponsors the corporate sponsorship
that we receive and the corporate support that we receive when you look at
the robots you'll see names printed on the robots and those sponsors are there
for a reason those names are there for a reason because those companies have come
to us and opened up their their intent their desire for us to succeed but also
opened up their wallets and their checkbooks for us it's a very expensive
program a very expensive intensive program because we try to stay on the
cutting edge of the technologies that are available and we recognize that that
that is a team sponsor and a team goal and a matter of fact with the robots you
see here first expects teams to become self-sustaining and not be a burden on
the school districts or the other other partners but to look for sponsorships of
the nature that we have I want to point out a couple of couple of them we have
historic sponsors that have been on these robots since the robot teams were
formed and you'll see those usually in the bigger banners and for our case it's
at Cinco Ranch High School that's British Petroleum you'll see the BP on
there and Oceaneering both of them came to Cinco Ranch fit over 15 years ago 16
years ago and said we want to this to happen the sponsors reached out to the
school and to the parents and said let's work together to make that happen and
since then the success has grown and grown led to the the five T robot teams
you see here that represent KISD on the I'm talking about now the larger robots
and the many smaller teams and other efforts that we go through in the
robotics program culminating in the development of the use of the STEM
Center as one element robotics is an element that is clearly supported in and
driven at the STEAM Center. The teams now though are continuing to grow and
even in the economic hard times that we faced in the oil industry, we have
maintained and kept sponsorship and grown sponsorship and I'd like to point
out a couple of new ones that have stepped up this year. Bechtel
is a sponsor for two of the robotics teams that you see here
tonight and we have another company called AECOM that stepped up
for their first time this year so we are looking at a continued growth, continued
diversity of the companies that see the value in this and come out to the STEM
Center and they're just just overwhelmed at the ability of the teams to interact
with each other the broad breadth of the of the involvement of the high schools
the cross sharing of the ideas and ultimately of course the reason we do
this is for what the students are able to achieve and where they go and we are
demonstrate the success of that with this fact that many many of our students
pursue those technical degrees after that and we now have students back
working in local industry that have come on board to help mentor the team in
which they played and started with so that's a cycle that we're very proud of
and want to recognize tonight you'll hear a lot about the successes of the
season you'll see the robots in the and what we've achieved and recognize that
and one thing I would like to do is introduce the sustainability of our
program is to move forward with our students and our student leadership and
And I'd like to ask Amelia Clybur to come up.
She's our president for this coming year,
and she would like to introduce Amelia.
AMELIA CLYBURR Good evening, board.
Thank you.
Good evening, Madam President, board, Superintendent Hint.
My name's Amelia Clyburr.
Next year, I'm going to be, it'll
be my second, my third year on the team.
I'm a junior.
so class of 2019 go Cougs so I'm really excited to continue working with the
robotics team and with the board and you're definitely going to be seeing
more of us in the upcoming year at this point I'd like to think ray a senior at
May Creek is going to come up and talk to the group about the successes that
that made Creek achieved as a rookie team,
a first time team this year.
Don't wanna be too close, you know.
Thank you, Madam President, Superintendent,
and the board for having me here today.
My name is Rinaldo Flores, or other known as Ray.
As much as I wish I was a senior,
I'm actually a sophomore, incoming junior, and I'm actually the secretary for May Creek's
school's robotics club also known as the Roborams.
So thank you for inviting us here today and giving us the opportunity to tell you just how much
robotics means to us and what we've kind of gone through and learned as our first year as rookies, you know.
First Robotics was founded around 28 years ago, so longer than I've been alive, that's for sure, and
our district STEAM Center was built around five years ago. In that time, several schools in our district
district have 400 many robotics scenes such as Kryptonite Cinco Ranch, Taylor High School,
Seven Lakes, Tompkins, and Morton Ranch, of course. Can't forget about those guys. However,
in that time, you know, all the hype behind robotics, May Creek's never really considered,
I can not consider we've considered, but we've never really created a robotics team of our
own, you know, something to be proud of in that sense. However, you know, last year,
here, Mr. Adams.
Wherever he's at, yeah.
Mr. Adams and some of the other robotics mentors
that established the teams before Meat Creek approached us
and asked if we would actually like to form a robotics team
of our own.
And Ms. Galvincia, of course, can't forget about her,
and Ms. Curiel, which unfortunately
couldn't be here today, they said practically yes
immediately because they saw how much robotics can
do for kids, how much robotics can really
and be influential and how much it matters to the district as you can see
um but make me be such a diverse school that we're kind of known for we wanted
to be the robo-ramp one of the reverends be a reflection of that diversity and
feel like that was very important to us so in that sense we combined three
schools together actually we combined the students here at May Creek High
School as well as Taylor's previous Taylor High School's previous robotics
team that couldn't do it this year we took some of their programmers into us
And we also took a homeschool group, you know count as much as we make fun of them, you know, can't forget about those guys
It's this diversity and inclusion kind of policy that we're the most proud of you know
It's the more matters about robotics. It's kind of like making sure everyone's included and everyone you know, it matters
We're not just one team from three backgrounds though. We're one family as a whole
Over the past year, we the Roborams believe that robotics is teaching us not only academically
in terms of math, science, and engineering, but how to be better people and be better
members of society altogether.
We are developing skills such as teamwork, communication skills, trusting our peers,
and leadership skills.
Robotics has also given me, personally, the opportunity and privilege of getting to work
with these amazing and one-of-a-kind people I have the opportunity to call my teammates
and my family. I'm very lucky to be part of the Roborams. I feel like it's a very
one, you know, as many teams as we have here tonight or this afternoon, it's six
o'clock, I don't know, but as many teams we have here tonight, no one's like the
Roborams. We're all robotics and we're all first, yeah, but we all have our own
individual groups and our own individual personalities and that's what makes
robotics great, the individuality, the meaning behind it. Robotics is so much more
than a team or an extracurricular activity it is our is our family away from home through this
opportunity the opportunity of being around people and teams of other from other schools cities and
countries even robotics has taught us to work with others without discrimination and be accepting of
all a great example of working with others despite being from different countries is our brother team
that we like to consider from monterey mexico tectronic which cannot be here tonight because
because they live in Mexico.
This team traveled for several days to Houston to compete.
But the robot unfortunately couldn't get through customs.
Upon seeing this, we immediately agreed
to lend our spare chassis to Tektronik
so they could actually compete and not
let their trip be in vain.
One of our adult members actually left the competition
and drove back to the STEAM Center
to pick up our practice chassis to give to Tektronik
so they can actually have that opportunity.
Other teams jumped in to help, including, well, I can't say Cinco Ranchos, they weren't there, but Seven Lakes, Tompkins, and even NASA.
Where was I? Next page. After that simple act of kindness, though, you know, just a simple, like, offer of donation, you know, basically just genuine kindness,
Roborams and Tektronik became brothers in arms. Not, you know, in terms of war, but in terms of
camaraderie and robotics. Coincidentally though, Tektronik's mascot is also a ram, such as
Maitrex, but there's no direct relation of course. This example of helping your competitor is a prime
example of cooperation. A word that first robotics is coined to describe cooperating with your
compel compel words competition for the greater advancement of knowledge and
learning this is what makes robotics so amazing to us though robotics is so much
more than a competition or a simple sport it's what makes you it is a place
where anyone can come together and grow into better people and better members of
society no matter regardless of the race religion or gender our first year's
robotics teams has been very eventful and very successful. One of our most
notable achievements is winning the greatest professionalism award for our
help of you know for Tektronik and giving them our chassis. We were also given the
title of being one of the top five safest teams at the Lone Star Central
Regional despite there being 20 plus experienced teams there. Our greatest
accomplishment by far was not either of those awards however. Our greatest
accomplishment has been building a robot we were all proud of through hard work
and dedication robotics has changed our lives for the better and this could not
have been done without the support of the KDI as the staff the steam center
staff as well as the other mentors and teams at the steam center that help us
on a day-to-day basis Thank You Cinco Ranch by the way we have been taught math
science engineering marketing graphical design public relations community
outreach and more importantly we are receiving the social skills we will need
when we enter the real world and workforce. If it wasn't for robotics I
would have never gotten to know 27 members, work with 11 mentors, combine
three schools, and work with one family. Thank you.
Now I'd like to introduce Bella from Singal Ranch's 624 team.
Thank you Madam President Vann, Superintendent Dr. Hint, and school board members for
inviting us here tonight. My name is Bella Ripple, the 2016-2017 Safety Captain for Team
64 Kryptonite from Cinco Ranch High School. And this past year we have had so much fun
and an amazing season and it all started with three goals that we had in mind. And our first
one was to get more students involved with robotics from our school. And that was achieved
in the fall when we had over 100 students join our team.
And that was very exciting to have.
And our second goal was to build
a competitive kick-bot robot.
And after six weeks of hard work
from all of our students and mentors,
we created Nautilus here, who exceeded our expectations
and made it to the playoffs at every single competition
that it went to.
And our last and most ambitious goal
was to win the most prestigious award in the FRC community, the Chairman's Award,
which goes beyond just the robot and focuses on the impact that the team has
on its students, the community, and community in the world. And though we
were confident in our ability to win, we surprised even ourselves by winning it
on our first try at the Hub City Regional in Lubbock, Texas. And I had the
pleasure of being one of the three presenters of the award to a panel of
judges where we talked about our contributions to the Lego League
community and Katie but also in India where we started multiple FLL Lego
robotics teams and we also discussed our collaboration with the Katie ISD board
on building the Robert Shaw STEM Center and so that was very exciting and have
have to have won that.
And also at the Hub City Regional,
we made it to the quarterfinals with a world-renowned team
and won the Safety Award, which is given to the team who
has the best safety program.
As safety is a very major part of robotics culture
and is important not only to us but to our sponsors
as well, which safety is one of their core values.
So it was very exciting to win that.
And after the Hub City regional, we kind of got how to play the game a little bit.
So at our next regional in Kansas City, Missouri, we were in it to win it.
And that weekend, we went against top-tier teams and were victorious and won that regional.
And once again, we won the safety award for the second time in a season,
which is the first time that our team has achieved that.
So that was very interesting. And at our last regional in the Woodlands, once again we made it to the playoffs and won an award in Innovation and Control, which is an award for the programming that is in our robot.
And something different about this regional was that our team had the opportunity to nominate two juniors from our team for the Dean's List Award.
And that award recognizes an outstanding student who demonstrates superior leadership skills.
And I had the honor of being one of those two winners.
And that made the regional definitely more exciting, not only for me, but for our whole team.
And because we won the Chairman's Award and won a regional, we qualified for the World Championships.
Now, we're actually held here in Houston at the George R. Brown Convention Center and
Minute Maid Park.
And before the championship started, we actually held a social at the Robert Strauss STEM Center
with two Israeli teams and a Chinese team.
And at the end of the tour and the social, they were just so inspired by our wonderful
facilities and we would just like to thank you so much again for all the help that you
you have provided with us and the facilities that you have provided with us that helps
us continue to expand our program because the robotics program is just so meaningful
and I'm sure everyone in the STEM Center can tell you that.
But yes, a day later after our social, championship week started and all week we were just so
excited to get to meet the teams from all over the world and be exposed to different
ideas and cultures and though there were some language barriers for some of the
teams you could just see the passion and the interest that everyone had for
robotics and so to be able to experience that was just so cool and at the end of
the week we played again in the playoffs with the Turkish team who had heard of
us even before coming to worlds which is just so mind-blowing that we have made
an impact in some place like Turkey. So and we also were one of the three
finalists for the safety award out of over 130 teams. So that was that was so
what a great experience really and overall this year has just been so
amazing and we are so grateful for everything that KDIC has provided us
with and so proud of what has come of our collaborations.
So thank you again for having us tonight.
And I'd like to introduce Mr. Steve.
Adams the facility coordinator of the Robert Shaw Simpson good evening madam
secretary and dr. Hint and school board from my vantage point as a KS to you
representative at the steam center I would just like to thank you for taking
the time every year to let these robotics teams present to you I've
worked with the district many years and I know that they're accomplishing what
we're trying to do here in Katy all of the cornerstones critical thinking
problem-solving communication all of that is being accomplished here creating
the future unparalleled learning experiences all of those things so I
thank you so much for giving them time every year and I wish we could have we
didn't have time to hear from all of the teams seems like Tompkins Seven Lakes
Morton Ranch, they competed. They were in the quarterfinals. They did so much. I
wish you could hear from all of them but we don't quite have that time but you'll
see the robots out here. The highlight for me this year was watching May Creek
form a new team and I didn't know what he was going to say but inclusion was
one of the words I was going to say that it was such an inclusive joyful team and
And what was really neat is being at the STEAM Center
and then seeing the other teams like Cinco, Seven, Morton,
Tompkins helping them if they had problems.
The mentors just going back and forth helping,
such a spirit of collaboration, and all
for the good of the students.
I mean, this is what education is all about, in my opinion.
So that was the highlight for me this year.
And at the Shaw Center, we're serving thousands of students
during the day on field trips.
And then at night on weekends, we had the robotics program.
and we couldn't do it without the school board and so we thank you and just
appreciate this time every year thank you
madam president madam president mr. pet am i interrupting you okay I just wanted
to thank mr. Adams for your leadership there at the Shaw Center and to the
robotic students were so stinking proud of you right ray you did a great job representing your
school hi mr shaw was a very good friend of mine and i know he's smiling and so proud of
what you're doing and he was an engineer and he loved the robotics program and so the STEAM
Center is so reflective of him and his work ethic and was always so proud of all of the schools and
all the students and the inclusiveness and talking about the kindness you showed to a team who needed
it and how the collaboration that has happened at the STEAM Center and it was very innovative when
when we built that.
And instantaneously, it was too small.
Right?
I mean, it's full of students learning above and beyond
a classroom and from a textbook.
And what you all do, creatures, I'm
so proud of you, elementary school,
of coming up with and problem solving.
And you inspire us.
And we look forward to just having more and more
opportunities for students to show us what they're capable of and we're just
really glad you're here Thank You madam president
well said and this concludes this portion of our board meeting again one
one more round of applause for these great kids we get a demonstration though
I want to see the balls fly out
And I learned something to cooperate in a proper
Cooperatition I love it cooperation and competition
There you go
Real quick. I want to see those yellow balls flying there. He said he said a picture. We normally take a group picture
okay of course now I've tried to mess with it
yeah I'll do it
Am I enabled?
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Okay.
Thank you.
You're great.
Great question.
Thank you.
Thank you.
No, no, I can't hear you.
I can't hear you.
You got it?
It's not working.
I'm trying to do it.

I really want to try it. I feel like shooting like 5,000 people so much fun.
It would be, but I feel like you would also get really close to the ceiling.
It definitely would hit the ceiling.
I think you're all good.
You guys are doing a great job.
I'm going to get a little bit of a break.
I'm going to get a little bit of a break.

Seriously.
It'd be kind of fun, but don't hit me.
Do what?
Yeah, I'm not...
Okay.
Here, wait until...
They're in the tunnels right there.
Try it.
I'm surprised there's some restrooms.
all right thank you very much this is awesome it's a treat we look forward to
every June good luck next year and congratulations on all your successes
this past year thank you for all the students who took talk to date and we
appreciate your demonstrations
budget update six point two
on to our next item under reports six point two we'll give them a little time
there I'm afraid one of those things will swallow you up Chris the 2017 2018
budget update presented by mr. Smith
Sorry.
Sorry.
Yeah.
I don't blame them.
Item 6.2
Well, I will start off by complaining about that's a hard act to follow,
but I think following paint to dry would be a hard act to follow for the budget and state funding so
I know it is what it is
But I want to start out there at that pretty pretty building there in Austin the capital and I'm going to read a quote before
We get started and this quote was said someday
It's something it's not a full quote. It's it's excerpt from an article that I think we all have read
from back on May 13th
2016 just over 13 months ago
and I'm gonna read this and it's got a couple of words I don't even know what
that felt I had trouble finding them on Google but they are but this is this was
hot on the press about 13 months ago following the Supreme Court decision and
I'll lead off with these words although the Texas Supreme Court determined in
its May night of 2016 ruling that the state school finance system was
constitutional it indicated that Texas more than Texas is more than 5 million
and school children deserve better than serial litigation over an increasingly Daladanian
system and that they deserve transformational top-to-bottom reforms that amount to more
than a Band-Aid on top of a Band-Aid.
They further indicated that the Czech's children deserved a revamped, non-sclerotic
system fit for the 21st century.
That was 13 months ago and we had had hope in that court case and lost and 13 months
later or some 9 months later when the legislative session started, the 85th session, not much
changed.
As far as the results of that, the priority bills going into the budget were a balanced
budget and they did pass a balanced budget, but tax reform, payroll reduction, ethics
of public officers and franchise tax reduction did not pass. Other things that
didn't pass were a first step towards that school finance reform was Senate
bill, House Bill 21 filed by Huberty that was going to increase the basic
allotment. It's going to make it the funding formulas easier for so more
people can understand them. It was going to hopefully fund the ASATR, the
additional state aid for tax reduction for some districts and help them and it
was going to possible have November election dates for TRE and bond
elections those did not House Bill 21 did not pass as we know other things
high quality kindergarten was in the budget but there was no money in the
budget we are as part of this legislative session the general fund
will be picking up some things that the high quality pre-kindergarten grant used
used to fund and will no longer fund. TRS care reform, they did do some TRS care reform.
These are retirees insurance. They put that on the backs of school districts and the state
picked up some, but, and I'll talk about that a little later. And active care reform did
not get addressed. That's the state insurance program that most school districts participate
in, not KDISD, and we'll talk about that a little bit in the future. As far as transfer
for facial reforms there were none the basic allotment didn't change this still
for five thousand one hundred forty dollars there were no weight changes
there was not an extension of additional state aid for tax reduction again that
doesn't affect Katie ISD but it does affect several districts throughout the
state there's no hardship grant didn't affect Katie ISD and there was no new
round of IFA funding which again does not affect Katie ISD because of our
wealth wealth per student this is state funding you've seen this before a few
months ago from by me and I'm going to go over real quick and just talk about
that compressed right there that arrow that you see that's our compressed tax
rate at a dollar eight six six our wealth per students there is that purple
line we have three hundred see if you take our total property values and
divided by our weighted students. It's about $360,000 per student. That yield is $36. And in order to be subject to recapture, that wealth divided by your number of students would have to be $5,140. There's that basic allotment. I'm sorry, $5,140 per student. And there's that basic allotment that I talked about earlier. Again, total property value divided by your weighted students would be
be five hundred and five hundred and ten thousand four hundred dollars per
student and again we're far from that that number so we're far from recapture
moving over to the to the right there that little changing color to gold those
are the golden pennies that that the state has this was a big change this has
been something that that we've been eyeing since it was in the house budget
original house budget back in January and in the Senate's budget and and we
just thought it was too good to be true but if you'll look there at the top of
that that was the Austin yield that's what the Golden Pennies are based off of
that's that's Austin ISD's wealth per student or seven hundred and seventy
thousand dollars per student if you took their wealth divided by the number of
students that has increased to ninety nine dollars and forty one cents there's
There's a big price tag on that for the state of Texas.
I'll cover that in a minute, but that was a game changer for KDISD since there was no
other new funding.
That was about a 25 percent increase in the Austin yield, and that picked us up probably
around $9 million.
That helped our bottom line.
So the additional money, the Austin yield, what I just talked about, it went from $77.53
to $99.41 this year. We expect that to increase next year. Austin ISD's wealth, yes, is almost
a million dollars per student. Again, ours is $360,000 per student. Theirs is almost
a million dollars per student. So going back to this slide here, they're sending almost
– they're sending more than half of what they get – actually twice what they get
to keep back to the state.
The additional cost of this statewide was $1.5 billion.
That was a cost to the state.
Revenue to Katy was about $9 million of that.
It ends up being about $117,000 per WADA or per student.
And the state also funded enrollment growth in their budget, and that's $2.7 billion.
So we have high growth.
We're have the some of the fastest growth in the state
That we had but there's growth throughout the state and as it's up pretty quick even though we're one of the fastest growing
Statewide over the biennium over the next two years you're looking at about 2.7 billion dollars to fund all growth statewide
So those add up to about two point four point two billion dollars and please remember that at the bottom of the next slide
These are, this is kind of what saved the day again. The local taxpayers saved the
day. The largest method of finance for state savings was due to the large
growth in school property values. We've talked about those rotten apples, we've
talked about how as property value goes up the state's participation goes down.
Local growth in value saved the state 3.6 billion dollars in this biennium. So
So KDISDs, the numbers that you've seen from me over the last few months statewide are about $3.6 billion.
And for those that are subject to recapture, their recapture increased over a billion dollars.
So that's looking at about $4.6 billion of additional revenue that came from the backs of taxpayers statewide.
And you remember that $4.2 billion additional expense.
So the delta there is the taxparency issue or those rotten apples that I've been talking to you about over these last several months.
NIFA, New Instructional Facilities Allotment, that was another star in the session.
House Bill 1081, when we open new schools statewide, we've historically been given
$250 per student in those new schools to open the school.
It helps with some of the fixed costs.
I like to call it as the spoonful of sugar that helps the medicine of the opening a new
school go down.
That increased from $250 per ADA to $1,000 per ADA.
We're members of the Fast Growth School Coalition and they lobbied, they've always lobbied hard
for increasing it to something real.
One thousand dollars per ADA really does help that spoonful of sugar.
That is a cost of 23.8 million dollars a year, about 57 million dollars, I'm sorry, 57 million
dollars over the biennium.
there's a thousand dollar award to be prorated if the request for the kids in
new schools exceed the twenty three point seven five million dollars and I
put that as a warning I don't know what to budget other than a thousand dollars
but if all students in all new schools across the state are in being twenty
three point seven five million they'll prorate it down down towards less than a
thousand and I don't know what that will be hopefully but by the time I speak to
you in August will know more what that is.
As far as budget items of interest, we just talked about the NIFA, $47.5 million.
The IFA, again, we no longer qualified for that, but that went to nothing.
And there is some money that the state put in for property value decline.
There are some school districts across the state whose values go down, and they kind
of get hit double whammied, and that's a modest amount in there to help soften their
fall if that's the case. Some non-FSP or the Foundation School Programs of Interest kind
of moving more toward grants. We don't qualify for all the grants that I'm going to show
you but I really wanted you to see the thing. These on this page that are asterisked, we
do qualify or participate in. Just to give you an idea, I won't go over all of these
but the high quality pre-K grant, the reduction in that is going to cost us about $540,000
dollars a year to make yes sir to maintain that program uh the student success initiative about
four hundred thousand dollars per year about eight hundred thousand dollars over the next biennium
that's going to cost us that's what we use for interventions for for our students and the advanced
placement program is going to cost us about 41 000 or about 82 000 over the next couple of years
Again, these are things that our students need and we're finding ways to put those in
the general fund.
So these are now unfunded mandates.
Others that we may not participate in, probably because we don't qualify because a lot of
these are for smaller school districts, but again the common theme there is the RED, the
reductions that they're providing at public education through these grants.
Again, the red on these, we don't get any of these.
Actually, we do.
We will be able to participate in the – no, actually, we don't participate in any of these.
Take that back.
But there is increases in the JJAP program.
That's the Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program.
And the Wyndham School District is actually the school district that's run by the penitentiary system
system. Or Texas Department of Corrections, I believe is the appropriate word. TRS, this
is the TRS care that I talked to you about. This is the retirees insurance, so this is
not affecting any employees that work for KDISD unless they're retired and coming back
as substitutes. But we are increasing our contribution from 55 basis points, or .55
to 0.75%. That's going to raise $133 million state-wide. That's going to cost KDISD about
$930,000 or just under $1 million for our increase to that. Again, that's going toward
retirees' health insurance. The state is going to increase their contribution by 25% from
from 1% to 1.25%.
Some other bills I won't spend time on, but to give you a quick budget update, I'm not
going to go into details of numbers yet. We're just about wrapping up
our budget process, but we're not quite there to where they're so close.
I hate to show you the details, but do know that student demographics,
we got the 16-17 final student numbers just today. We had a preliminary
at them a couple of weeks ago and I've been and my staff have been analyzing
those to see how our current year 16-17 ends up. We use that data to continue to
further estimate our projections with student numbers that we're using for
next year's budget. So we'll tweak those and and there's some there's a couple
things that we're learning in here that may be may be good from a demographic
standpoint from a revenue at least. Tax collections were obviously obviously
concerned about our watching mindfully the appraised values of the district
comptroller's property values mr. Puanca brought us some data just last week that
we were able to file on the 2013 tax year these
These were refunds that were given by the appraisal districts according to tax code
by Mr. Pawanka's efforts.
We'll get that back in state funding.
It just takes a couple, several months, but we'll get that back, those refunds.
Those are always happening.
Shares double up.
You've heard me talk about those for the last several years.
We're probably going to use that in the next year's budget.
budget. Underspending, we're analyzing as we speak the 16-17 underspending that we have. Most of the underspending is primarily due to staff. If I quit today, it would take a while for me to be replaced and therefore there's a lag. That adds up over time and so there's underspending and we use that as we wrap up our 16-17 budget and we'll use that and consider that that's going to happen in the 17-18 budget.
And of course salary accruals are a big big factor that we'll be studying this these next month
Fund balance I want to talk to you a little bit about fund balance. We have 198 million dollar fund balance
That's a big number, but this is the percentage of expenditures. You want that number to be over 25%
I'm sorry. I didn't draw a line a thick line at 25%
I probably should have but you can see there that even though our expenses have raised and our fund balance is raised our percentage of
expenditures to our fund balance has been level these last four or five years.
And over 25%, not well over 25%, but over 25%. Remember 25% is three months
operating. So you want to want to be over 25% and not too far over because you're
not letting the money work for students. From a budget perspective, Dr. Hintz
set us out with our goal, just like the state's goal there in slide one I had, to
to maintain a balanced budget.
We wanted to maintain competitive salaries.
And I've heard much appreciation to this board and Dr. Hint
for going out early with the 3% salary increases for staff.
From my perspective, that's been very well received from staff.
And they're very, very grateful for that.
And we worked with that.
And that was a big expenditure that we could take aside
and take the unknowns.
And then Dr. Hint and his cabinet
that have worked really hard from that point forward to try to come up with
meeting the main maintain a balanced budget and we've we're getting close and
we think we're gonna get we're gonna get there and I'm proud to say we're gonna
get there without hurting anything in the classroom to maintain our health
care program was a big big thing and you're gonna hear from mr. Nauman next
month with a health care update and what we're doing with our health care program
as far as the plan that will begin during this next budgetary year.
We want to avoid TRS active care at all costs, and we will be able to continue that.
And we're opening, of course, those three schools,
and keeping in mind that we have to plan for opening
and the fixed costs associated with Elementary 41
and Pato High School's third additional grade level.
level. General Fund, we pretty much started it two years ago, but officially started it
back in October when this Board heard the PASA population and survey analyst report
back in October, and I've reported to you all almost every month thereafter, and here
we are tonight at the very bottom. As far as what's important moving forward is state
state funding formulas. We know they didn't change or they haven't yet based on the 85th regular session.
We'll be looking at and continuing to look at enrollment and student demographic numbers, and then we're waiting.
We've got a taxable value estimate that I'm going to talk about here in a second,
but that's going to be important in our budget process, and we've got an estimate and we'll be getting real numbers
in August as we move forward.
This is what you saw a couple of months ago or three months ago
when it comes to our percentage value increase.
We've averaged 10 point, well, prior to this year,
we'd averaged 10.2% over the last 10 years.
We got our values, our preliminary estimated values in early May,
and they came in at just over 6.2%,
not quite what we'd expected, below average.
But we do know that there's issues going on with the economy.
We're still growing, but the appraisals did not come in
the 8% or the 10% that we thought they would.
Again, 10.2% had been the average.
I threw this in late.
I thought this was interesting information.
This is the value growth by county.
So Harris County is by far our largest county still when it comes to appraised value.
And you can see back in the Great Recession in 2010, we actually lost value in Harris County.
But then we've had three years of well over 10% in Harris County.
and when you look at Fort Bend County our second largest you can see there
we've had three years above 10% as well they never had a down year back in 2010
and this is a surprise you this is Waller County look at those huge gains
at 30% that's some of the commercial properties that were added just to the
west of where we're standing as well as the Cane Island residential development
and other development in that area although those are high percentages
percentages, they're small enough in Waller County that they don't bring the percentages
a whole of growth up.
So again, we're looking at an average of, at our estimate of 6.2% for the 2017 tax year,
the 2017-18 budget year.
Importance of property value to school funding.
This is a busy map and I apologize, but I think it's important for you to know that
the appraisal districts use market data there's that top orange arrow they use
market data and sales data and building permits to to come up with their
appraisals and they use that and they provide that the aggregate of that again
from Waller Fort Bend and Harris County they provide their totals to the school
districts and the school districts use that to develop their budget and their
tax rates okay they also provide that information to the comptroller's office
in Austin and a comptroller uses that and they perform that data and do a
property value study and hopefully the aerial arrow will go to the green are
they to the to the right and the comptroller will reward a school
district the local value the school district basically if they do that
that's a symbol they're back to the to the county appraisal districts that
they've done a good job and the school district uses that information again to
develop its budget and tax rates. If they do a bad job, going to the right there, to the red,
that is a symbol to the appraisal district that they're not doing a very good job.
And they use the state's value, remember the higher property value, the lower your state
funding. And so if you're not doing a good job, they're going to make sure that the district will
get penalized or can get penalized by having higher value reported and therefore getting less
money per state didn't get the taxes and now a year later you're not going to get
the state revenue if your appraisal district doesn't do a good job I can I'm
glad to say that that we've had some years where we've we've come close or
we've not gotten local value but most years if we didn't get it one year we
get it the next there's a one-year grace period we don't have all of ours
recently have gotten local local value assigned so we've gotten good scores but
there have been years in the past where we've had to go to a grace period here
and kind of bit our fingers and fingernails a little bit again why do I
say this I think it's important that that that everybody know that it's not
the you know what when we talk about taxes and we talk about tax rates we
talk about appraised values or what generates that the appraisal districts
Waller Fort Bend and Harris County do a fantastic job they're graded by the
comptroller we just saw with these apples the comptroller or the Texas
state of Texas has an interest to making sure that the appraisal values are done
done right. Our budget, we've not gotten quite this far. We're close. But again, it's not going
to be much different than this. 88% of what we're doing is in payroll and salary and benefit costs.
And most of, almost everything we do is in the classroom there on the far left there. And that's,
obviously, that plan is continuing in place. And you'll see specific numbers on this in July.
From a debt service fund, we don't think we're going to have any refunding opportunities.
uh this next year but we are planning on defeating bonds again
uh we are seeing better interest rates on our deposits
uh and our bond proceeds and we think that that's going to help
significantly increased our interest income on the the
bond proceeds and on our debt service proceeds
and then we are continuing to use and build this budget around the use of
building america bonds that helps us manage our tax rate uh
fund balance is another debt management tool and we've we've not had to use the
fund balance to manage the tax rate lately from a planning standpoint that's what we have next
next month we're going to ask we're going to i'm going to show you more details uh where we're
starting to look at more bottom line again and then we hope to ask you to approve a notice that
will approve the the notice that we have to put in the paper that we'll publish on august the 3rd
And on Monday, August the 21st, we hope to have a budget.
We will have a hearing to discuss the budget and proposed tax rate.
And then the following Monday, we hope that you'll adopt the budget.
And then September, we'll address the tax rate.
This will be what the notice looks like.
This is a portion.
This is the top part of the notice.
The notice has a lot of details, but this is the main part.
that will be having a workshop on August the 21st in this room.
With all that said, there's a special session called.
The governor called it to begin on July 18th.
I gave them six weeks to decompress from the 85th session
and hopefully plan up and recalibrate things, six weeks to do so.
And the session, I think, to this point is to be 30 days.
and in the meantime we'll be watching that we'll be considering our enrollment
growth the economic uncertainty of what those may mean to our property values
and enrollment growth property value growth and knowing that the funding
cliff I would say with going from a 10% increase in our property values down to
a 6% that takes a little bit of a step down from the funding cliff when we're
looking at the 18-19 budget. We're already looking at considering that so
that there's any silver lining in that that does help from a 18-19 budget. Maybe
not having such a over 10% increase may make us a little bit less prone to
another 6% or 7% increase in value. And that's really all I have for you
you tonight. Madam President. Mr. Griffin. Mr. Smith, the House and Senate's talking about
cutting some of the taxes that are associated with the ACA. Have they indicated on if they're
successful on cutting those taxes on when that would affect our budget? The American
Health Care Act? Affordable Care Act, yes sir. Okay. Mr. Nauman's going to cover that next month,
but we in the cost of for us the cost of medical care is going to be the cost of
medical care and it will be always a battle for us to try to figure out the
best way to have our employees because good consumers and and continue and
they're doing great job managing that plan all of our employees that
participate are doing a great job of managing that plan mr. naman is doing a
good job of managing that great job of managing that plan and it's in a good
financial position to weather a storm however what the America Affordable Care
Act will do probably nothing to it is my guess
mr. Scott mr. Smith I want to there's about three or four points and I just I
I think I know the answer to these, but I would like for you to kind of clarify.
On the new growth allotment that we're going to get from $250 to $1,000,
that is the total proceeds of that are what, going to be about a half percent of our general fund budget?
Something of that magnitude?
Yes, sir.
It's right at a half.
It is.
So we can thank the state of Texas for increasing our funding in that regard by about a half percent,
not much how much the if you would go to page 7 the the recapture page I just I
want to make sure that I'm clear on this as we get closer to to maybe considering
some of these issues Katie is D is not having money recaptured because we're a
chapter 41 district that's correct however some portion of the tax property
the tax equivalent tax revenue that they take from us is not all of that is not
going to the state's general fund some component of that I believe is going to
other school districts or for education is that correct yes some component of it
it is yes so if the total amount is a hundred percent what amount of money is
the state of Texas what percent of what they take how much of that is they're
stealing from us that's my word from a perspective of the last going back to
the 1314 school year totaled would be about nineteen point one cents on our
tax rate okay equivalent to nineteen point one cents on our tax rate all
All right, so that is the 19 cents is the magnitude number of what our property taxpayers are paying
to support the general fund of the state of Texas.
Yes, sir.
And that's over how many years?
Back to the 13-14 school years, so it would be over the last four years.
So it's about $7 or $8 million a year, something of that order?
Yes, sir.
Okay.
That's our property values are growing faster than our students' enrollment.
Yes, sir.
all right so for the new the new funds that we're getting because of the
increased fast growth allotment so we're going to have 1500 2000 whatever that
number is we're going to get that on the new students for 1718 yes sir when those
students are not new to us 1819 will that funding follow those students all
the way through or will it be new students every year that funding will
follow the students every year but because of our property value growth it
will the formulas will will reduce the state funding although we're still
earning money on those students that are new they will it will still decline it
will still continue that piece of the state's pie will continue to decrease so
So to put the generosity of the state of Texas in context,
they're going to give us something,
and then they're going to take some of it away,
and then if there are a lot more students than they budgeted for,
they're going to prorate it.
Yes, sir.
That pretty well summarizes it?
Yes, sir.
Hello, state government.
I just want to make sure that the board understands in our community, too.
Would you again explain how the state got to the 4.6 billion because I think it's important to understand that they actually
Netted money in this lead budget cycle
Although we got the new instructional materials allotment or new instructional facilities allotment. We also got the Austin yield
There is a plus to the state off of local revenues. Could you walk them through that real quick one more time here?
Sure. Just like the percentage of state funding that's going to happen in KDISD is going to decrease,
statewide, again, we're not the only district with growing property values.
I believe the percentage is somewhere around 5% or 6% statewide property value growth.
As that value grows at a faster rate than total students grow,
the state is participating less and less in those districts.
districts. And in this case, it's $3.6 billion to districts similar to Katy added all together
over a biennium. And in this case, it's over a billion dollars increased recapture. Those
checks, some of those districts are writing, are increasing by over a billion dollars.
The amount that districts like Katy receive from the state are decreasing by $3.6 billion,
all because of increasing property value.
So they're using local revenue not at 100% to fund schools, but to fund other state projects,
water, transportation, and things like that.
Yes.
And then, Madam President, then that is also offset by these programs that they have defunded,
which we would get a share of.
So if we're having several million dollars added by the fast growth to take care of new students
All those areas where you had asterisks that we are no longer sharing in that revenue
That is a net reduction of state aid as well
Yes, sir, totally related to cost having nothing to do with number of students, right?
No questions present
present um yeah I think you kind of summed up my assessment of the 85th
legislature pretty well on those three slides you you presented that had kind
of the program funding from the last biennium or the current one that we're
in and then the one that's gonna follow this legislative cycle because in most
of those it looks like on educational programs they actually decreased funding
yet they're adding funding to the juvenile justice system and to me that's
backwards and the Wyndham school district potentially a self-fulfilling prophecy so
I'm hoping that they can make some changes maybe in this special legislative
session madam president mr. Moholsky that is a perfect assessment an educated
populace contributes to society and when we don't make sure that we are educating
our children at the highest quality possible we will see things necessary
like increasing our juvenile justice and increasing our you had the word for the
prison systems we are not serving our community well when we don't take care
of education first
my question is thank you mr. thank you and I did want to say that again we plan
on bringing a good good positive budget to you and a lot of hard work's gone in
from dr henton his leadership and and the cabinet in the departments and uh we're going to come up
with something that's palatable and again it's great for great for kids and katie after we pass
that budget you're going to stop losing weight right not hair but wait wait wait probably we
appreciate all your hard work we move to item number seven consent agenda madam president
