Long Range Facility Planning Committee

Planning Today for Snyder ISD’s Future

The Snyder ISD Long-Range Facility Planning Committee, or LRFPC, will bring together students, educators, parents, community leaders, and taxpayers to study the district’s current and future facility needs.

The committee will serve in an advisory capacity to the Snyder ISD Board of Trustees during the 2026–27 school year. Its work will help guide the development of a five-year Long-Range Facility Plan and will conclude with recommendations presented to the Board in June 2027.

Throughout the process, the committee will keep students at the center of its work while considering how to make the best use of the district’s financial resources.

Why the Committee Was Formed

The Snyder ISD Board of Trustees approved a framework to restructure the district’s facility planning committee to include greater student voice and broader representation from across the district and community.

This process aligns with Board Policy CS (LEGAL), which requires school districts to consider input from teachers, students, parents, taxpayers, and other stakeholders when developing a long-range facility plan.

The committee’s work will begin in September 2026 and continue throughout the school year. Community members will also have an opportunity to provide input through a districtwide survey in the spring.

Committee Charge

The Long-Range Facility Planning Committee will:

  • Study current demographic information and future student enrollment projections.

  • Tour district facilities and assess capital improvement, maintenance, transportation, technology, and safety and security needs in consultation with Snyder ISD staff.

  • Identify additional facility needs that may affect the district’s ability to carry out its mission and meet the goals outlined in the Snyder ISD Strategic Plan.

  • Review Snyder ISD’s current and projected financial outlook.

  • Consider options such as new construction, building additions, temporary facilities, renovations, and other approaches to addressing district needs.

  • Develop a final Long-Range Facility Planning Committee recommendation for the Snyder ISD Board of Trustees and administration.

The committee’s recommendations will be presented during a public meeting of the Snyder ISD Board of Trustees.

Committee Membership

The committee will include more than 50 members representing Snyder ISD schools and the broader community:

  • 10 elementary representatives from grades PK–3

  • 4 intermediate representatives from grades 4–5

  • 9 junior high representatives

  • 12 high school representatives
