Heads up, taxpayers and parents: We’ve audited the upcoming WATER VALLEY ISD agenda. There are 4 items targeting parental consent and taxpayer funds that need your immediate attention before the gavel falls.
⚠️ Warning (LEVEL 8)
Board to Vote on Canceling November Election
πŸ“… November 3, 2026
The school board is scheduled to vote on an order to completely cancel the upcoming November 3, 2026 school board election. While legally permissible if candidates are unopposed, this action prevents the possibility of a write-in campaign and removes the voters’ opportunity to hold their elected officials accountable at the ballot box.
Response

DEMAND A VOTE: Contact the Water Valley ISD board (see Official Agenda link for contact info). Ask them: ‘Why is the board canceling the November 3rd election? Taxpayers deserve the right to vote for their representatives, even in uncontested races.’

πŸ’° Impact: Reduced Voter Accountability

Board to Vote on DEI Compliance Resolution
πŸ“… Scheduled Action
The board will hold a public hearing and then vote on a resolution regarding compliance with state law on DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion). Taxpayers should ensure this resolution fully dismantles any DEI programming and staff positions, rather than simply renaming them to continue the same activities under a different label.
Response

SHOW UP & SPEAK UP: Attend the ‘Public Hearing SB 12 DEI Compliance’ to ensure the district is eliminating DEI, not just rebranding it. Email the board: ‘I support full compliance with state law banning DEI. Please ensure the resolution for ‘SB12 Resolution DEI Compliance’ eliminates these programs, it doesn’t just give them a new name.’

πŸ’° Impact: Politicizing the District

Vague Title β€” Manual Review Required
πŸ“… Scheduled Action
The board plans to vote on unspecified amendments to the 2026-2027 budget. Without the details of these amendments being published with the agenda, it’s impossible for taxpayers to know what spending changes are being approved after the main budget has already been set.
Response

INVESTIGATE: The district has not provided the proposed budget amendments for public review. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand that the ‘2026-2027 Budget Amendments’ be posted online before the board votes.

πŸ’° Impact: Undisclosed
ALERT (LEVEL 4)
Requires Verification

Vague Title β€” Manual Review Required
πŸ“… Scheduled Action
The board will vote on purchasing vehicles for “CTE and other needs,” but the agenda provides no details on the number of vehicles, total cost, or what the vague “other needs” are. This lack of detail prevents public oversight of a potentially significant taxpayer expense.
Response

INVESTIGATE: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask for the details on the ‘Purchase of a vehicles for CTE and other needs’ item: ‘How many vehicles, what is the total cost, and what are the “other needs” they will be used for?’

πŸ’° Impact: Undisclosed Spending
