Local Alert

📅 Monday, October 19, 2026 to Calendar

Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming LINDEN-KILDARE CISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.

WATCH (LEVEL 4)

Requires Verification

Vague ‘LIP’ Plan Approval Requires Scrutiny

📅 October 19, 2026

The board is scheduled to approve a ‘LIP’ plan without providing the document or defining the acronym in the public agenda. These types of local plans can be used to introduce controversial curricula, new spending programs, or data collection initiatives outside of public view.

Response

INVESTIGATE: The agenda for Item III, ‘Consider Approval of LIP,’ lacks any attached documents. Contact the District Office to demand a copy of the ‘LIP’ plan be posted online before the vote so taxpayers can see what’s in it.

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Policy Changes

✅ Wins for Taxpayers

Good moves worth showing up to support so they stick.

Win (LEVEL 6)

District to Earn Revenue from Oil and Gas Lease

📅 October 19, 2026

The board will vote to approve a bid for an oil and gas lease on district-owned property. This action generates revenue from district assets, which can help fund school operations and ease the burden on local property taxpayers.

How to Lock It In

SECURE THE WIN: Contact the Linden-Kildare CISD board to express support for Item X. Thank them for seeking alternative revenue sources to fund the district instead of relying solely on property taxes.
