📄 View Official Agenda
Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming CAMERON ISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WARNING (LEVEL 6)
Board May Give Superintendent ‘Blank Check’ on Turf Project
📅 October 26, 2026
The board is considering delegating its authority to the Superintendent for the high school’s baseball turf replacement project. This move reduces public oversight and accountability, allowing spending decisions and contract approvals to happen without a specific, public vote by the elected board.
Response

DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY: Contact the Cameron ISD Board before the meeting. Ask them to vote NO on delegating authority in Items 9, 12, and 13. The elected board, not staff, must retain final approval on all contracts and spending for this project.

💰 Impact: Reduced Accountability
WATCH (LEVEL 4)
Requires Verification

Vague ‘Campus Improvement Plan’ Could Hide Policy Changes
📅 October 26, 2026
The board is set to approve the ‘Campus Improvement Plan’ without the document being publicly attached to the agenda. These plans are often used to introduce controversial curricula or programs like Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) without a transparent, standalone vote.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the District Office and ask for the ‘Campus Improvement Plan’ under Item 6 to be posted online for public review before the vote. Taxpayers deserve to see what’s in the plan before it is approved.

💰 Impact: Politicized Curriculum
