Celina ISD is set to operate on a balanced budget for the upcoming school year.

The context: Celina’s budget is projected to increase $27.8 million compared to last school year’s $104.1 million budget, according to prior reporting.

Zooming out: The budget increase reflects the district’s growing enrollment, according to data from the Texas Education Agency.

One more thing: The approved budget includes a 4% raise at the salary midpoint for CISD teachers staff, according to district documents.

Granny’s Bakery in downtown Celina has overhauled its drink offerings with a new coffee bar, owner Mikala Everson said.

On the menu: This summer’s seasonal drink is a lemon pound cake latte, Everson said. Other bakery-inspired flavors on the coffee bar’s permanent menu include banana bread, birthday cake, cinnamon roll and cookie butter.

Quote of note: “I was thinking about, you know, what could I make better for our customers?” Everson said. “I just wanted to do something that was fun.”
