Heads up, taxpayers and parents: We’ve audited the upcoming TURKEY-QUITAQUE ISD agenda. There are 3 items targeting parental consent and taxpayer funds that need your immediate attention before the gavel falls.
⚠️ Warning (LEVEL 7)
Requires Verification

Vague Approval of School Health Advisory Council
📅 Scheduled Action
The board will vote to “approve SHAC” under Item 8. This is dangerously vague—it could mean approving new members, a new curriculum, or new health policies. School Health Advisory Councils (SHACs) are often used to introduce controversial health and sex education with little parental input.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the board regarding Item 8. Ask: ‘What specific action is being taken regarding the SHAC? Are you approving members, policies, or curriculum? Please provide all relevant documents to the public before the vote.’

💰 Impact: Bypassing Parents on Health Ed

Key Policy Documents Up for Vote Without Public Text
📅 Scheduled Action
The board plans to approve the annual Student Code of Conduct (Item 6) and the District Improvement Plan (Item 7). These foundational documents, which dictate student discipline and district spending priorities, are up for a vote without the proposed text being attached to the public agenda.
Response

INVESTIGATE: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand the proposed text for the Student Code of Conduct (Item 6) and District Improvement Plan (Item 7) be posted online for public review before any vote is taken.

District Adopting New Vision and Mission Statements
📅 Scheduled Action
The board is approving new vision and mission statements for the entire district under Item 14. These guiding documents can be used to inject ideological buzzwords like “equity” or “social justice” that later justify controversial policies and spending priorities, but the proposed text is not available for review.
Response

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Before the board votes on Item 14, demand the proposed new Vision and Mission statements be posted online for public review and comment. Contact the District Office to make your request.

💰 Impact: Ideological Mission Creep
