School Board Update
New board leadership for the 22-23 school year will be Billy Moore as President, Chris Dillon as Vice President, and Kellye Seekatz as Secretary.

Keeping the Best Teachers & Staff in Bastrop ISD!
The combined raise and retention incentive provide our paraprofessionals with an average 11% pay increase and teachers/nurses/librarians an average 7.22% pay increase! The Board also approved providing employee-only health insurance at no cost to employees and a cash incentive that could provide an additional $1,100 per year for staff who have perfect attendance.
We appreciate the support and leadership of our school board trustees in helping us recruit and retain the very best teachers and other staff that we possibly can! #WeAreBISD
