Grapevine-Colleyville ISD could face $1.4M shortfall, gives update on fiscal year 2026-27 budget

The latest budget update for Grapevine-Colleyville ISD predicts the district could end fiscal year 2025-26 with a balanced budget as the best case scenario, or a $1.4 million shortfall as the worst case scenario, Director of Finance Paula McBride said at the April 27 board meeting.

“The budget amendment brought before the board this evening indicates a $1.4 million deficit,” she said. “Since we don't receive our near final data from the state until September, the final amended budget should be kept at the worst case scenario so we are sure to stay within budget.”

McBride also gave an update on the proposed fiscal year 2026-27 budget, which will be brought forward for adoption by the board of trustees no later than June 30.

The overview: Investment earnings will not meet the FY 2025-26 budgeted amount due to a reduction in interest, McBride said. While district officials predicted a reduced interest when preparing the budget last spring, they did not know how much it would decline, she said.
