Outside Group Gets Access to Your Child’s Private Data
| 📅 Vote Scheduled August 3, 2026 |
Under the cover of a ‘Consent Agenda,’ the board is approving a $150,000 contract with ‘Communities In Schools of Baytown.’ This agreement embeds an outside organization in seven schools to provide ’emotional intelligence’ and ‘social skills’ training. The contract includes a massive data-sharing agreement, giving this NGO access to your child’s most sensitive information, including their Social Security Number, home language, discipline records, and at-risk status. This outsources the guidance counselor’s role to an external group and creates a shadow data profile on your child without your direct consent.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Trustees. ‘I demand Item 7.D.5, the Communities In Schools contract, be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and a roll-call vote. Parents do not consent to sharing their children’s private data with outside organizations.’ Advise members to verify board contact details on the district website.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $150,000

Behavioral Surveillance Program for Pre-K Students Renewed
| 📅 Vote Scheduled August 3, 2026 |
The board is renewing a $218,260 contract with a company called ‘Fueling Brains’ for a Pre-K ‘Early Childhood Development Program.’ This is not about ABCs and 123s. The program uses an ‘Intelligence Dashboard’ to conduct psychological assessments and track the ‘Executive Functions’ of 4-year-olds. The contract includes an extensive data-sharing agreement to collect student grades, test scores, attendance, and behavior referrals. This is social-emotional engineering and data mining targeted at the most vulnerable students in the district.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: Sign up for public comment. Email the Board of Trustees: ‘Vote NO on Item 7.D.9. Our Pre-K students need to learn to read, not be subjected to psychological profiling and behavioral data mining by a third-party vendor.’ Advise members to verify board contact details on the district website.

Secret Spending Hidden from Public View
| 📅 Vote Scheduled August 3, 2026 |
Item 7.D.16, ‘Superintendent’s Expenditures,’ is listed for a vote on the Consent Agenda with no supporting documents attached. The board is being asked to approve a blank check without parents or the public seeing what the money is for. This is a severe transparency violation that could conceal payments to controversial consultants, lobbyists, or ideological vendors. Parents have a right to know how every dollar of their tax money is spent.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Trustees: ‘Item 7.D.16, Superintendent’s Expenditures, must be pulled from the Consent Agenda. I demand a full, itemized list of these expenditures be provided to the public before any vote is taken. Stop hiding the money.’ Advise members to verify board contact details on the district website.

Partnership with City of Houston Health Department for Sex Ed
| 📅 Vote Scheduled August 3, 2026 |
The board is approving a partnership (MOU) with the City of Houston Health Department to implement an ‘abstinence education’ curriculum called ‘Choosing the Best.’ While the program is described as ‘abstinence-centered,’ the agreement explicitly states it also ‘does educate about contraception including efficacy rates.’ This brings an outside government health agency into the classroom to teach sensitive topics. Although there is an opt-in, this partnership opens the door for a city health department to influence the curriculum your child receives.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK QUESTIONS: Email the Board of Trustees: ‘Regarding Item 7.D.12, I request that the full ‘Choosing the Best’ curriculum and all student materials be posted on the district website for parental review before this partnership with the Houston Health Department is approved.’ Advise members to verify board contact details on the district website.

District-Wide Student Data Tracking System Purchase
| 📅 Vote Scheduled August 3, 2026 |
The district is spending $191,999 on the ‘MAP Growth Assessment System.’ While presented as a tool for monitoring academic progress in reading and math, these powerful data dashboard systems are part of a growing student surveillance infrastructure. This system collects and analyzes student performance data, creating detailed profiles. Parents need to know who owns this data, how it is protected, and whether it will be used to track non-academic, behavioral, or attitudinal metrics in the future.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email the Board of Trustees: ‘Regarding Item 7.D.8, who owns the student data collected by NWEA’s MAP Growth system? Please provide the specific parental opt-out form for this assessment before the contract is approved.’ Advise members to verify board contact details on the district website.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $191,999

Vote on Student Code of Conduct with No Document Attached
| 📅 Vote Scheduled August 3, 2026 |
The board is scheduled to vote on the 2026-2027 Student Code of Conduct (Item 7.D.4), a critical policy document. However, the actual document is not attached to the public agenda, only a cover sheet. This prevents parents from reviewing potential changes to discipline, definitions of bullying, or policies related to gender identity before they are approved. This is a transparency failure on a core policy affecting every student.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Email the Board of Trustees: ‘I request that the vote on Item 7.D.4, the Student Code of Conduct, be postponed until the full text of the proposed document is posted for public review. Parents must be able to read the rules before you vote on them.’ Advise members to verify board contact details on the district website.

Using District Position for Political Lobbying Endorsements
| 📅 Vote Scheduled August 3, 2026 |
Under item 7.D.15, the school board is using its official capacity to endorse candidates for the Board of Directors of the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB). TASB is a powerful lobbying organization in Austin that frequently opposes parental rights legislation, such as curriculum transparency and school choice. This is taxpayer-funded political activity where the board is choosing who will lobby state legislators on behalf of the district.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK QUESTIONS: Email the Board of Trustees: ‘Regarding Item 7.D.15, how do the endorsed TASB candidates stand on key parental rights issues? The board should represent parents, not a political lobbying firm.’ Advise members to verify board contact details on the district website.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: N/A
