The Comal ISD Board approved the district’s staffing request for the 2025–26 school year during the March 27 meeting.

Dr. Davis presented the staffing recommendation, which administration said is based on demographer projections and a building staffing model. The recommendation included two categories: immediate growth reflected in current projections, and a second category of staffing held for the start of the year to address anticipated, but not yet quantified, enrollment changes. Dr. Davis told trustees the second category provides flexibility so the district can react quickly to unanticipated enrollment without waiting for a later board meeting.

Trustee Courtney Biasotti asked whether the “potential growth” line included specific numbers; Dr. Davis said the future-need allocations were intentionally left general to allow administration to respond to late enrollment shifts. Trustee Tim Hennessy moved to approve the staffing recommendations as presented; the motion passed 6-0.

The board directed administration to monitor enrollment and return to the board with any required adjustments as the district finalizes student assignments and the school year approaches.
