Summary
Keller ISD is boosting staff pay for 2026-27 with step increases and 1% raises, thanks to a $346 million budget surplus—but employees face a $25/month health insurance hike. The district cut $13M from last year’s budget and shuttered three under-enrolled schools. With rising costs and unfunded state mandates, officials urge community members to contact state lawmakers ahead of the 2027 Texas Legislature, and may offer a one-time bonus if revenue stays strong.
