Trustees unanimously approved an $80.9-million budget that will be used to provide instruction, pay salaries and fund operations throughout the District.

“We are proud to present a balanced budget that will support the work our District is doing to educate the children of Canutillo,” Superintendent Dr. Pedro Galaviz said. “Like most Districts in the region and the state, this year’s budget process was a challenging one. I’m confident our District will show resiliency and continue to prove Canutillo is the Best Small School District in Texas.”

The approved budget includes the 3 percent salary increase for all eligible employees trustees approved earlier this summer.

It also reflects a projected decrease in administrative cost ratio from 12.1 percent in 2021-22 to 10.6 percent in 2022-23.

Cristina Pulley, CISD’s Executive Director of Finance, said this year’s budget closely copes with a loss of revenue due to decreased enrollment in the District.

While parts of Canutillo ISD are experiencing tremendous growth and development, other more historic regions of the District continue to see declining enrollment.

Preliminary projections from the El Paso Central Appraisal District indicate an increase of 12 percent in the District’s property tax roll. CISD will receive its certified property tax valuation later this summer.

The Board of Trustees will set the tax rate for the 2022-23 fiscal year in August or September.
