It is with great sadness that Burnet CISD announces the passing of School Board Trustee Andy Feild following a lengthy battle with cancer. He had been the longest-serving Board Member with 26 years of service, having first been elected in 1997. He served as Board President for 18 years, from 2005 to 2023. Superintendent Keith McBurnett shared, “Burnet CISD is the District it is today because of Andy’s leadership and life-long commitment to the District, this community, and to Spirit, Pride, and Honor. His passing is a huge loss for our school district and community, and our Team of 8 will miss his thoughtful leadership greatly.”

Immediately after the passage of the 2021 Bond Program, a Bond Oversight Committee was formed with 7 members. This committee served in an advisory role to the Superintendent and met almost every month for the past two years. The Board and Administration recognized the following people for their service to the Bond Oversight Committee: Michael Holcomb, Damon Beierle, Jason Howell, Katy Duke, Lori Ringstaff, Jen Banton, and Elton Heine (not pictured).

Burnet CISD once again received a perfect score of 100 and a Superior rating, the top rating possible, for the 2022-2023 Financial Integrity Rating System of Texas (FIRST). This is each district’s “Financial Report Card” from the state. The purpose of the FIRST rating is to ensure that school districts and open-enrollment charter schools are held accountable for the quality of their financial management practices and achieve improved performance in the management of their financial resources. The Administration will provide an overview of the FIRST rating at the October 16 Board Meeting.
