Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming POTTSBORO ISD agenda and found 1 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WARNING (LEVEL 7)
SEL Curriculum on Consent Agenda
📅 October 26, 2026
The board is set to approve the Middle School’s Campus Improvement Plan, which explicitly includes a “Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum” called “Core Essential Values.” While presented as character education, SEL programs can shift focus from core academics to subjective emotional and social instruction, opening the door to politicized content. This plan is bundled on the consent agenda, meaning it could be approved without public discussion.
Response

DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Pottsboro ISD Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact details): ‘I demand Consent Item V.F. be pulled from the Consent Agenda for separate discussion and a roll-call vote. Taxpayers deserve to know where each board member stands on implementing a Social Emotional Learning curriculum in our schools.’
