SISD approves budget with $22 million deficit, approves audit after overcharging taxpayers
The Socorro Independent School District school board this week approved a $479.6 million budget with a $22 million deficit for the 2024-25 school year. The budget adopted in a 6-0 vote Wednesday represents a 19% decrease over the current school year’s $594.5 million budget. Trustee Richard Castellano abstained from voting after commenting that the district waited too long to address the deficit.
