Dear Briscoe Community,
Thank you for coming out and supporting all the amazing things that were happening on campus this week like concerts, UIL and soccer games. We love seeing everyone back in the building, on campus, and cheering on our Bengals.

School Bond 2022
No tax rate increase means no tax rate increase
No tax rate increase is anticipated with the proposed $992 million school bond. However, ballot language will include the statement, “THIS IS A PROPERTY TAX INCREASE.” Legislation passed in the 2019 Texas Legislative Session requires that school districts include this language, regardless of the bond’s impact on the district’s tax rate. This law only applies to school district bonds. You will not see this language on other governmental entities' bond proposals. The district has the capacity to issue additional bonds without a tax rate increase because of expected property value growth and the fact that NISD is continuously paying off prior debt.

Family Survey
Dear Families,
Our district values your feedback! Briscoe is excited to invite you to participate in our Family Survey. We are currently surveying families in order to gain insight into your perception of our school and district effectiveness. To help us learn how to make your child’s schooling experience as positive and beneficial as possible, we need your feedback.
We have partnered with Panorama Education to conduct our 2022 Family Survey. Panorama safeguards your privacy, keeping your responses confidential. The survey shouldn’t take more than a few minutes to complete and will be a valuable source of information for us as we work to make improvements in our school and district. Families should take the survey focusing on the experience of their eldest child.
You may complete the survey online between Monday, April 25th and Friday, May 13th using a computer, tablet, or smartphone by visiting the website
https://surveys.panoramaed.com/nisd/bri058/surveys and entering your school’s access code:

We thank you in advance for your thoughtful responses. If you have any questions about the survey administration, please don’t hesitate to contact us at 210-398-1100.
