Principal Moore and Dean Trahan kicked off the meeting by sharing some information on the ongoing AISD consolidation process. You may have heard about this, through this newsletter or other news.

This process has raised a lot of questions among concerned parents, and while we don’t have all the answers yet, there is a lot of helpful information available already! To highlight some key points:

  • Austin ISD is facing significant budget shortfalls and looking for ways to meet all its students’ needs, now and in the future.

  • As part of this process, many changes are possible, including school zone boundary changes, transfer policy review, facility repurposing, program realignment, and yes, school closures.

  • AISD is taking this process seriously and considering many factors, including the broader context around each school and its role in its community. You can learn more about the factors being considered, and see some of the raw data. We watched this video about interpreting data that helps to explain the data.

  • Principal Moore and Dean Trahan urged our Campbell community to keep our children’s needs and well-being foremost in our minds through this process. No matter what happens, this is a decision with impact on our whole community, including other schools nearby, and we want the Campbell community to be a positive force in these discussions.

  • AISD will announce a draft proposal for what changes to make at its October 9th Board Information Session, and anticipates voting on the final plan on November 20th

  • Any changes would go into effect no sooner than the 2026-27 school year.

This process is still ongoing, and your participation matters! There is an AISD homepage for information about this process, including a parent survey—this is a great way to make your voice heard!

And there will be informational meetings over Zoom, 6-8pm on Tuesday, September 9th Meeting (link), Wednesday, September 10th Meeting, and Monday, September 15th Meeting . These will feature information from AISD, and opportunities to participate.
