Heads up, taxpayers and parents: We’ve audited the upcoming BLUE RIDGE ISD agenda. There are 2 items targeting parental consent and taxpayer funds that need your immediate attention before the gavel falls.
⚠️ Warning (LEVEL 7)
Board Appointing Delegate to Lobbyist Conference
📅 Scheduled Action
The board is appointing a delegate to txEDCON, the annual conference for the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB). TASB is an association that uses local property tax dollars from member districts to lobby the state legislature, often for policies that increase property taxes and limit parental rights.
Response

DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Blue Ridge ISD board (see official agenda for contact info). ‘Regarding Item 9.B, I demand this item be discussed and voted on individually. Taxpayers deserve to know which board members support sending a delegate to the TASB conference, an organization that lobbies against our interests.’

💰 Impact: Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying

Undisclosed Change to Local Board Policy
📅 Scheduled Action
The board is scheduled to vote on a change to local policy designated as ‘CV(LOCAL)’. The agenda provides no summary or attached document explaining what this policy change entails, preventing any public review before the vote.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Blue Ridge ISD board (see official agenda for contact info) and ask for the proposed text of the change to Policy CV(LOCAL) to be posted publicly before the vote on Item 9.D. ‘What is the proposed change to policy CV(LOCAL)? The public deserves to see the text before you vote.’

💰 Impact: Reduced Transparency
