At a budget workshop, Leander ISD staff outlined a roughly $12.2 million 2025–26 deficit projection, proposed a 3% budget parameter (creating about $6.8M capacity) or alternative payroll budgeting to bridge gaps, and described a possible November 2026 voter‑approval tax election that could net the district about $6.5M after recapture.

District staff and Pfluger Architects unveiled a phased master plan for Leander High School emphasizing security and access, improved student experience, more efficient use of square footage and program alignment; Phase 2A would add a new main entrance, cafetorium and CTE addition with Phase 2B remodeling to follow across several years contingent on bond funding.
