As Corpus Christi ISD continues to welcome students to a new school year, the district also continues implementing changes mandated by the 89th session of the Texas Legislature.

Senate Bill 12 requires public school districts to begin board meetings after typical work hours, effective Sept. 1. CCISD proactively moved the board meeting start times from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m., effective Monday, Aug. 11.

Additionally, also in accordance with SB 12, public comment on non-agenda board items now takes place at the beginning of each board meeting following the invocation, pledges and reading of district mission and vision.

CCISD continues to study new legislation affecting public school districts and will continue to share updates and information as they become available.

Information regarding district policies and school procedures is available on school websites and the district website, ccisd.us.
