Aldine ISD’s $693M Budget: What’s Inside?

Aldine ISD just dropped its 2025-26 budget—$693.6 million, down 4% from last year, and they’re playing it safe while waiting on state funds. There’s a $48.4 million deficit, but teaching and learning still get the biggest slice ($375.4M). Food, buses, counseling, and even security are all funded. The tax rate isn’t changing (yet), but the real twist? They’re holding off on counting new state money until it’s officially in the bank. Major school year vibes! #Education #AldineISD #SchoolBudget
