A BIG "Thank You" to our @FortBendISD parents, staff and community for supporting the District’s tax rate election. We are excited to announce that #FBISDPropA has passed with a majority of the votes.
Unofficial votes will be canvassed at a later date.
Today is the last day to early vote. It is our vote. It is our choice. Let exercise our civic duty and vote.
I have voted. I have chosen. How about you?

@FortBendISD VATRE - Prop A would generate $35M dollars yearly to provide salary increases for teachers and staff, as well as fulfill a state mandate to hire armed security officers for all elementary schools. But what would happen if Prop A is not approved? #FBISDPropA
Here in @FortBendISD employees who fall under the teacher category could see raises if the tax rate election is approved. Visit https://t.co/b37IbyPb8a

Due to a national shortage, FBISD Bus Drivers often have to drive multiple routes, sometimes making students wait longer. If voters approve Prop A, the funds generated would be used to increase pay and recruit additional drivers. #YourVoteMatters#FBISDPropA
If VATRE Proposition A is approved, all benefits-eligible staff members will receive an immediate pay raise. What's even more crucial to note is that this pay increase will be retroactive to the beginning of their 23-24 contract start date. #FBISDPropA#YourVoteMatters

Passage of the VATRE will not cause an increase in property taxes for Homeowners ages 65 and over or disabled who have applied for and received the Over 65 Homestead Exemption unless they have made improvements to their residence. #FBISDPropA#YourVoteMatters
There is a shortage of police officers across the State, and the increase in police pay from a successful VATRE would enable the district to hire more officers and replace the armed security guards over time. #FBISDPropA#YourVoteMatters
FBISD will have a voter approval tax rate election (Prop A) on the ballot in November. If approved, it would generate $35M to increase salaries and fulfill a state mandate requiring all campuses to have armed security. Learn more: https://t.co/YeCRAmWaue via @YouTube
