SEL and “Social Skills” Embedded in Kindergarten Plan
The proposed District and Campus Improvement Plans, buried in Consent Agenda item VII.K, call for implementing “social-emotional learning” (SEL) and “social skills instruction” for kindergarteners. This shifts the focus from core academics like reading and math to subjective, values-laden social programming at the earliest ages.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Crosby ISD Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact details) and demand that Consent Item VII.K, the District and Campus Improvement Plans, be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Parents deserve to know why social-emotional programming is being prioritized for our five-year-olds.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Focus on Academics

Policy Change Reduces Board Oversight on Donations
Proposed changes to policy CDC (Local) would allow the Superintendent to accept “purpose-specific” donations up to $2,500 without Board approval. This creates a loophole that could allow activist groups to fund classroom materials or programs that push an agenda, bypassing public scrutiny.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND OVERSIGHT: Contact the Crosby ISD Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact details): ‘Vote NO on the proposed changes to Policy CDC (Local) in Item VIII.B. All purpose-specific donations, regardless of amount, should require a public vote by our elected trustees, not a unilateral decision by an administrator.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Board Oversight

Vague “Debates” Program Contract — Manual Review Required
The board is set to approve an agreement with the Harris County Department of Education for a “CASE Debates” program under Consent Item VII.I. The agenda provides no attachment or details about the curriculum, content, or cost of this program.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for Item VII.I attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm the content and cost of the ‘HCDE CASE Debates’ program. Contact the Board and ask why this contract was presented without a public attachment.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed

District Certifies Compliance with Anti-DEI Law
The Board will vote to certify to the Texas Education Agency that the district is in full compliance with state law prohibiting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. The district has updated multiple board policies to explicitly forbid DEI duties and prohibited classroom instruction.
How to Lock It In
AMPLIFY THIS WIN: Show up to thank the Board for formally complying with the state’s anti-DEI law during the vote on Item VIII.A. Get this on the record to ensure it can’t be reversed and use this as a model for neighboring districts.
✅ Why It Matters: Protecting Academics
