Teachers at Fort Bend Independent School District will see annual raises in the coming school year of either $1,750, or 3.25% of their current salaries, whichever is greater.

According to a revised salary proposal, which the FBISD Board of Trustees voted to adopt Monday night, non-teaching employees at the district will receive a raise of either 3.25% of their current pay, or 3.25% of the mid-point salary within their district pay grade, whichever is greater.

Trustees also approved a $428 million bond referendum – which will be put to a vote of FBISD residents in November – that would allow the fast-growing district to build four elementary schools, two middle schools and a high school within the next three years or so, in addition to making more than $138 million in repairs, refurbishments and maintenance to existing campuses. . .
