Student Mental Health Program Raises Data Privacy Questions
The board will vote on a ‘no cost’ agreement with Texas Tech for the TCHATT program, giving students access to telehealth mental health services. These programs can become a vehicle for collecting sensitive student data and introducing controversial social topics without direct parental oversight.
Response
DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Sunray CISD board. ‘Regarding Item 8, I demand this item be pulled for a separate discussion and a roll-call vote. What are the specific parental consent and opt-out procedures, and what data on our children will be shared with Texas Tech and the state?’
💰 Impact: Student Data Harvesting

Vague ‘Improvement Plans’ Could Hide Policy Changes
The board is set to approve four separate ‘improvement plans’ for the district and its campuses without providing the documents for public review in the agenda. These plans are often where districts embed controversial policies related to curriculum, spending, or ideological goals like DEI and SEL.
Response
INVESTIGATE: Contact the district office before the meeting and demand that the full text of all four improvement plans under Item 9 be posted online for public review before any vote is taken.
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Policy Changes

Adopting Federal Plan for Local Grant Eligibility
The district is considering adopting a Moore County ‘Hazard Mitigation Plan’ because it has been reviewed by FEMA and is a requirement for the district to remain eligible for federal grants. This creates a dependency on federal funding and can tie the district to future federal mandates and compliance costs, ceding local control.
Response
DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Sunray CISD board before the vote. ‘Regarding Item 7, what specific requirements and long-term obligations does adopting the Moore County Hazard Mitigation Plan place on the district, even if we don’t take FEMA money in the future?’
💰 Impact: Federal Compliance Burden
