Why Community Participation Matters
Regular board meetings offer an essential window into the governance of Cy-Fair ISD, which serves over 118,000 students across northwest Harris County. Topics such as school funding, academic programs, facilities, safety, and teacher support are regularly discussed and directly impact students, families, and staff.
