Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming UNITED ISD agenda and found 6 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
| ALERT (LEVEL 8) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The Board is voting on ‘proposed changes to the 2026-2027 Student Code of Conduct,’ but the actual text of the changes is not included in the public agenda packet. The Code of Conduct is a critical policy document where controversial rules on discipline, speech, and gender are often inserted without parental review.
Response
DEMAND A DELAY: Contact the Board (see official agenda for details): ‘Postpone the vote on Item IX.E. The public must be given the full text of the proposed changes to the Student Code of Conduct with adequate time for review before any vote is taken.’
💰 Impact: Bypassing Parents
|
| WARNING (LEVEL 7) |
|
District Slows Public Information Requests
The Board is voting on a resolution to designate 10 specific days as ‘nonbusiness days.’ This is a legal but unnecessary maneuver that slows down the district’s response time to Texas Public Information Act (TPIA) requests from parents and taxpayers.
Response
DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Board (see official agenda for details): ‘Vote NO on Item VI.D. The district should be working to speed up transparency for taxpayers, not using legal loopholes to slow it down.’
💰 Impact: Reduced Public Access
|
| WARNING (LEVEL 6) |
|
Vague ‘Mental Health’ and ‘Instructional Services’ Contracts on Consent Agenda
The district is renewing a ‘Mental Health Wellness Program’ and seeking ‘Instructional… Professional Services’ under the consent agenda, hiding them from public discussion. These vague titles are often used to hire consultants who bring politically-charged SEL or DEI programming into schools.
Response
DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Board (see official agenda for details): ‘Pull Item VI.B from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and vote. Parents deserve to know which vendors are being hired for ‘Mental Health’ and ‘Instructional Services’ and what they will be teaching.’
💰 Impact: Politicizing the Classroom
|
| WATCH (LEVEL 5) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The Board is set to approve spending from its ‘Discretionary Funds,’ but the attachment listing the specific requests is missing from the agenda packet. These funds can be used as a slush fund for pet projects without public scrutiny.
Response
INVESTIGATE: Open the file attached to Item VII.E in the Official Agenda (linked above) to see exactly where trustees are spending this taxpayer money.
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Spending

| WATCH (LEVEL 5) |
|
District May Grant Border Patrol Access to School Property
The Board will vote on granting the U.S. Border Patrol and Customs and Border Protection a ‘right of entry for surveying and site assessment’ on district-owned land. This could entangle the school district in federal immigration enforcement and create unknown long-term obligations for taxpayers.
Response
DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Board (see official agenda for details): ‘Before voting on Item IX.C, please publicly state the full scope of the agreement with the Department of Homeland Security and what future obligations this creates for the district.’
💰 Impact: Unknown Federal Entanglements
|
| WATCH (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The agenda includes an item for ‘Approval of Donations,’ but the attachment detailing the source, amount, and any attached conditions of these donations was not provided in the public packet. This lack of transparency prevents the public from knowing who is giving money to the district and why.
Response
INVESTIGATE: Open the file attached to Item VII.D in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm the source of donations and whether they come with ideological strings.
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Strings Attached
