FORSAN — School officials here are pointing with pride to a state report that indicates the district is getting a bang for its educational bucks.
As part of the state-mandated Financial Allocation Study for Texas (FAST), Forsan Independent School District's expenditures were compared to those of similarly sized districts across the state, and FISD came out the the highest-rated district of the group.
COAHOMA — Enrollment at Coahoma public schools is pretty much where officials expected it to be — and that's good news.
Coahoma ISD trustees will hear the latest enrollment news for the district when they hold their monthly meeting at 7:30 p.m. tonight in the administration board room.
“There's not a whole lot to this meeting,” Superintendent Randy Brown said. “It's probably the last board meeting of the year and it's a fairly light agenda.”
