The Fairfield ISD school board discussed and approved making multiple purchases to improve the district at their monthly school board meeting on Monday evening, June 9.
FISD currently has $400,000 left from the 2022 bond that has to be spent before the end of August. The board approved purchasing a bus from Longhorn International for $156,571 with the money from the 2022 bond. The bus is being purchased after the district lost a bus last school year due to an accident. Superintendent Joe Craig noted that the district has already received an insurance check from the accident.
With the remaining funds from the 2022 bond, the district will begin to make improvements within the district. The bond that was passed in May 2025 included $1 million for the junior high, $1 million for the elementary school, and $500,000 for the intermediate school for improvements as well.
