📄 View Official Agenda
Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming FRISCO ISD agenda and found 3 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WARNING (LEVEL 7)
District Plans Lobbying Platform for State Legislature
📅 October 19, 2026
The board is discussing its proposed legislative priorities for the upcoming 90th Texas Legislative Session. This is the first step in using district resources and taxpayer money to lobby state lawmakers, which may include opposing taxpayer interests like property tax relief or educational freedom.
Response

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Frisco ISD Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info). ‘Regarding Item 12, please publish the full text of the proposed legislative priorities online well in advance of the November vote so the community can provide feedback.’

💰 Impact: Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying
WARNING (LEVEL 6)
Requires Verification

Half-Million Dollar Contract on Consent Agenda
📅 October 19, 2026
The board plans to approve a five-year, $483,197.65 software contract with SHI for cybersecurity. Placing a significant, multi-year financial commitment on the ‘Consent Agenda’ bundles it with routine items, preventing public discussion and scrutiny of the contract terms.
Response

DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Frisco ISD Board. ‘Please pull Consent Item 14.F for separate discussion and a roll-call vote. Taxpayers should see the full contract terms in the official agenda and have a chance to hear them debated before a half-million-dollar, five-year contract is approved.’

💰 Impact: $483,197.65 (5-Year Contract)
WATCH (LEVEL 5)
All 70+ Campus Plans Bundled for Single Vote
📅 October 19, 2026
The board is set to approve all Campus Improvement Plans for the entire district with a single vote on the consent agenda. This process prevents any discussion or separate vote on individual school plans, making it impossible for parents to address concerns about a specific campus’s goals or direction.
Response

DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY: Contact the Frisco ISD Board. ‘Please pull Consent Item 14.H for discussion and a separate vote. Parents and taxpayers deserve the chance to address individual Campus Improvement Plans without having to vote down plans for the entire district.’

💰 Impact: Reduced Accountability
