Scholastic Book Fair List Includes Contentious Titles
📅 2026-08-17
A list of books for the elementary school’s upcoming Scholastic Book Fair has been released for review. While it includes many classics and faith-based books, it also contains titles known for promoting identity politics and social justice themes that parents should be aware of.
Recommended Action Plan

REVIEW THE LIST: The full list is attached to the agenda (Item XIII.E, ‘FES_Scholastic Book Fair list_FALL 2026’). Parents should review it and contact the elementary school principal to express concerns about specific titles being offered to young students and to ask about the vetting process for book fair selections.

District Confirms Compliance with State DEI Ban
📅 2026-08-17
The Superintendent reported the district has reviewed all policies and notified all staff and contractors to ensure compliance with new state laws (TEC §11.005) prohibiting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) duties. This is a proactive step to remove ideological agendas from district operations.

ATTEND & APPLAUD: Show up to thank the Board for proactively implementing the state’s DEI ban. This public support is crucial to ensure these changes are permanent and to set an example for other districts. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) to commend the Superintendent for his leadership on this issue.

Board Adopts Pro-Parent, Pro-Local Control Legislative Agenda
📅 2026-08-17
The Board is set to approve an advocacy agenda for the next state legislative session that pushes back on TEA overreach. The agenda criticizes strings-attached grants that divert money to third-party vendors and calls for accountability reforms that respect successful local career programs, like their meat processing lab.
How to Lock It In

SUPPORT & AMPLIFY: Contact the Board of Trustees via the district website to thank them for this common-sense advocacy agenda. Ask them to share the final ‘one-pager’ with the community so parents can use it when speaking to their own state representatives.

✅ Why It Matters: Fighting Bureaucracy
