⚠️ Warning (LEVEL 8)
District Seeks Waiver for Armed Officer Mandate
📅 September 28, 2026
The board will vote on a resolution to seek a waiver from the state’s requirement (HB 3) to have an armed security officer on campus. This action could leave the school non-compliant with state safety laws designed to protect students.
Response

DEMAND ANSWERS ON SCHOOL SAFETY: Contact the Evadale ISD board before the meeting. Ask them to explain in public session why they are seeking a waiver from the HB 3 armed officer requirement instead of complying with state law to protect students. Demand a recorded vote on Item 2.e.

💰 Impact: Reduced Student Safety

Potential Changes to Public Records Access
📅 September 28, 2026
The board is voting on a “Public Information Calendar Resolution.” The details are not provided, but such resolutions can sometimes be used to create new delays or hurdles for parents and taxpayers seeking public records under the Texas Public Information Act.
Response

PROTECT TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Evadale ISD board and ask for the full text of the ‘Public Information Calendar Resolution’ under Item 2.f to be posted online before the vote. Taxpayers have a right to know if this changes their ability to access public records.

💰 Impact: Reduced Transparency

Undisclosed Budget Amendments Proposed
📅 September 28, 2026
The board plans to vote on unspecified amendments to the budget. Without the details of these changes being made public ahead of time, it is impossible for taxpayers to know how their money is being reallocated.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Evadale ISD board and ask that the proposed budget amendments for Item 2.i be published with the agenda so the public can review them before the vote.

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Spending

Board Mandated to Take Parental Rights Training
📅 September 28, 2026

How to Secure It

SECURE THE WIN: Email the Evadale ISD board to express support for the TEA’s Parental Rights training mentioned in Item 3.a.5. Ask them to confirm at the next meeting when all members have completed this important requirement.
