📄 View Official Agenda
Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming ABERNATHY ISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WARNING (LEVEL 6)
Vague ‘Strategic Blueprint’ Contract with Outside Consultant
📅 October 12, 2026
The board will consider hiring the firm Moak Casey to develop a ‘Strategic Blueprint.’ These vague consulting contracts often come with high, undisclosed price tags and no clear, measurable benefit for students, while pushing a pre-packaged agenda on the district.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Abernathy ISD board before the meeting. Ask: ‘Regarding Item VII.G, what is the total cost of the Moak Casey contract, what are the specific deliverables, and why can’t this strategic planning be done by our own district leadership?’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Consulting Fees
WATCH (LEVEL 5)

Undisclosed Improvement Plans Up for Vote
📅 October 12, 2026
The board is voting to approve the District and Campus Improvement Plans, but the documents were not included in the public agenda packet. These plans can contain significant policy changes, new spending, or ideological curriculum mandates that parents and taxpayers deserve to see before they are approved.
Response

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Abernathy ISD board. Ask: ‘Please postpone the vote on Item VII.B until the full text of the District and Campus Improvement Plans are posted online for public review. We deserve to see what’s in them before you vote.’

💰 Impact: Hidden Policy Changes
