Secret ‘Model Policies’ for Students on Agenda
📅 October 26, 2026
The board is voting on unspecified ‘Model Polices related to Students.’ These policies often originate from outside lobbying groups like the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) and can impact everything from discipline to curriculum without any public review of the text.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Before voting on Item VII.D, the board must disclose the source and full text of these ‘Model Polices.’ Contact the District Office: ‘What is the source of these policies, and where can the public review them before the October 26th vote?’

Manager Hired for Unspecified Construction Projects
📅 October 26, 2026
The board is hiring a Construction Manager for ‘upcoming projects’ without specifying what those projects are or how they will be funded. This is often a first step toward major spending and could lead to debt being issued without voter approval.
Response

ASK THE QUESTION: Before approving Item VII.F, the board must clarify what ‘upcoming projects’ this manager will oversee and how they will be funded. Contact the District Office: ‘Will the projects managed by this CMAR be funded by voter-approved bonds?’

💰 Impact: Future Unapproved Debt

Vague ‘Strategic Goals’ Plan Up for Vote
📅 October 26, 2026
The board is voting on a five-year strategic plan for student outcomes. These long-term plans can be used to introduce controversial curricula or priorities like Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) without direct public review of the specific content.
Response

INVESTIGATE: The district should publish the full text of the proposed ‘Five-Year Board Student Outcome Goals and District Strategic Goals’ before the vote on Item VII.C. Contact the District Office and ask for the document to be posted online for public review.
