Austin ISD has approved cuts totaling $205 million for the 2026-27 school year. The reductions will impact various aspects of the district, including staffing, transportation, and extracurricular programs. Over 500 positions will be affected by the cuts.

The decision comes after months of debate and uncertainty. A rally was held outside the AISD building on June 11, 2026, where dozens of people gathered to oppose the budget cuts. Further details on the specific changes and their impact on schools are available, as the district has now finalized its budget for the upcoming year.
