George Fisher will continue to serve as president of the Paris ISD Board of Trustees while Jenny Wilson will continue on as vice president after the boardâs reorganization Monday. Becki Norment will continue in her role as board secretary.
The reorganization was required after Wilson, Place 6 trustee, and Fisher, Place 1 trustee, took their oaths of office. Without any challengers in the May election, both trustees retained their seats for another term. Their terms now expire in May 2024.
Prior to reorganization, the board accepted the resignation of Place 4 trustee Mihir âMarkâ Pankaj, who was elected to the board in 2020, as he successfully sought election to Paris City Council. His resignation also triggered a need to fill his spot on the Distinguished Graduate Awards Selection Committee. Norment already serves on the committee, and she will be joined by Place 7 Trustee Bert Strom.
Paris ISDâs Fiscal Year 2021-22 budget is beginning to take shape, but much of it currently relies on frequently changing estimates until the state and Lamar County Appraisal District provide final numbers, district business manager Tish Holleman reported to trustees. However, some of those numbers wonât be available until after the budget is approved.
Itâs a perennial issue for school districts since they operate on a July to June fiscal year, but state funding numbers arenât finalized until August. That oftens leads to financial amendments in September necessary to maintain a balanced budget, Holleman said as she reported what work must be done before a public hearing on the budget that will be up for approval June 21. Among that work is determining the districtâs proposed tax rate, a number Holleman said she cannot yet pinpoint.
Paris ISDâs Board of Trustees wants the Texas Education Agency to funnel billions of federal dollars to local public school districts to help them close the gap caused by summer and Covid-19 slides.
A resolution approved Monday by trustees will join similar resolutions by trustee boards across the state urging the TEA to pass through funds rather than using them to supplant its own funding, as it did with the first Covid-19 stimulus package approved in March 2020, Superintendent Paul Jones said. The state may not yet have applied for third round funding, Jones said, but that money would go a long way toward helping school districts to get resources in place to help students recover education levels lost to extended breaks.
