Higley Unified School District will use some of its accumulated Classroom Site Fund balance to help pay for a $13.5 million compensation plan for eligible teachers and other certified employees this school year.

The Governing Board unanimously approved the fiscal year 2026-27 Classroom Site Fund plan Sept. 22.

The district projects about $12.7 million in Classroom Site Fund revenue against approximately $13.5 million in costs for the four components of the plan, leaving a gap of about $828,000.
