The state comptroller's office selected Austin ISD as one of four school districts to undergo a detailed financial review. Comptroller Don Huffines stated the review aims to ensure public funds are used transparently and comply with state law. The review examines whether district spending supports students and teachers rather than administrative expansion. The final report is scheduled for completion by December 31.
