The North East ISD Facilities Steering Committee (FSC) was established in the 2024-2025 school year to serve as an advisory body to the Superintendent and Board. The Committee was charged with developing a comprehensive five-year (2025–2030) Long-Range Facility Master Plan that reflects the priorities of students, staff, parents, taxpayers, and other district stakeholders. Grounded in the District’s Balanced Scorecard goals, the FSC evaluated facility needs and recommended potential capital project investments that support student achievement and the responsible stewardship of district resources.
The NEISD Board of Trustees and the Superintendent appointed community members, parents and staff to serve on the Facilities Steering Committee. A total of 43 members comprised the Committee.
The work of the Facilities Steering Committee will be considered complete upon the formation and presentation of a comprehensive 5-Year Facility Master Plan for 2025–2030 to the Board of Trustees.
