District “Scorecard” Could Hide Student Data Collection

📅 2026-09-08

The board is reviewing a “District Scorecard” as an information item. These scorecards can be used to track non-academic data on students, such as social-emotional surveys or “equity” metrics, often without full parental transparency.

Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Garland ISD Board of Trustees (see district website for contact info): ‘Regarding Item IV.A.2, please make the full District Scorecard and all its data points public before the meeting. Parents have a right to know what non-academic data is being collected on their children.’
