Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for THRALL ISD. We found 5 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |
|
Vote on Undisclosed Purchases Over $25,000
The board is scheduled to vote on ‘Purchases Greater Than $25,000’ without providing any public information on what these purchases are. This lack of transparency makes it impossible for parents and taxpayers to provide oversight on significant spending.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND DISCLOSURE: Email the School Board immediately: ‘Item 10.B, ‘Consider Action on Purchases Greater Than $25,000,’ is unacceptably vague. We demand this item be tabled until the administration provides a detailed, public list of all proposed purchases for community review.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Taxpayer Funds

| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Unvetted Middle School Book Order on Consent Agenda
The board is set to approve a ‘Middle School Book Order’ without discussion as part of the consent agenda. Parents have no information about what books are being purchased, who selected them, or if they align with community values.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board President and Superintendent: ‘Pull Item 8.C, the Middle School Book Order, from the consent agenda. Parents have a right to review the full list of books being purchased with our tax dollars before they are approved.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Ideological Materials
|
| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Vague “SB 12” Item Hidden on Consent Agenda
The board is voting on an item cryptically labeled “SB 12” as part of the consent agenda, which means it could pass without any public discussion. Parents need to know what specific policy or action this refers to before it’s approved.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board President and Superintendent: ‘I demand Consent Item 8.B, ‘SB 12,’ be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Parents deserve to know what this item contains before you vote on it.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Policy Change

| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |

District Reviewing Student Data Analytics Vendor “datience’IQ”
The district is receiving a presentation from a company called “datience’IQ,” which appears to be a student data analytics and dashboard platform. These systems often collect sensitive student data for tracking and intervention, raising significant privacy concerns.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK THE HARD QUESTIONS: Email the Board before the meeting: ‘Regarding Item 9.D, what specific student data will ‘datience’IQ’ collect? Who will have access to it, and how will it be used? We oppose any new data surveillance systems that operate without explicit, opt-in parental consent.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy
|
| MONITOR (LEVEL 5) |
|
New Video Surveillance Guidelines for Special Ed
The district is presenting new guidelines for video surveillance in special education classrooms. While this can be a tool for safety, parents need to ensure the guidelines protect student privacy and give parents access to footage when needed.
Recommended Action Plan
REQUEST THE DETAILS: Email the Superintendent: ‘Regarding Information Item 9.A, please provide the public with a copy of the proposed ‘Operating Guidelines for Video Surveillance of Special Education Settings.’ Parents must be able to review these guidelines before they are finalized.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Student Privacy
