Texas Public Policy Foundation Alert: PECOS-BARSTOW-TOYAH ISD – Monday, September 14, 2026 [041e5841]

Texas Public Policy Foundation

Heads up, taxpayers and parents: We’ve audited the upcoming PECOS-BARSTOW-TOYAH ISD agenda. There are 1 items targeting parental consent and taxpayer funds that need your immediate attention before the gavel falls.

ALERT (LEVEL 4)

Public Comment Restricted at Special Meetings

📅 Scheduled Action

The district’s policy, detailed in the meeting attachments, limits public comment at ‘Special Meetings’ like this one to only items on the official agenda. This procedure prevents parents and taxpayers from raising other urgent concerns with the board until the next regular meeting, delaying accountability.

Response

Contact the PBTISD Board of Trustees (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) and ask them to revise policy BED(LOCAL) to allow open public comment at all public meetings. ‘Parents’ and taxpayers’ concerns don’t always wait for a ‘regular’ meeting schedule.’

💰 Impact: Reduced Public Access
