Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming WINDTHORST ISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WATCH (LEVEL 5)
Undisclosed Budget Amendment
📅 October 12, 2026
The board is scheduled to vote on a ‘Budget Amendment’ with no public details about what is being changed, how much money is being moved, or for what purpose. This lack of transparency prevents taxpayers from scrutinizing mid-year spending changes before they are approved.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Windthorst ISD board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) and ask: ‘Regarding the Budget Amendment on the October 12 agenda, please provide the specific line items, dollar amounts, and justification for this change. This information should be public before any vote.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Spending
WATCH (LEVEL 4)
Opaque Change to Employee Compensation
📅 October 12, 2026
The board plans to vote on an ‘Update to WISD Compensation Plan’ for extracurricular events without disclosing the financial impact to the public. Taxpayers have a right to know the cost of any pay increases before they are approved by the board.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Windthorst ISD board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) and ask: ‘What is the total taxpayer cost of the proposed update to the Compensation Plan on the October 12 agenda? This detail should be made public before the vote.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Pay Increases
