Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming JIM NED CISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WARNING (LEVEL 6)
Requires Verification

Vague ‘Improvement Plans’ Require Scrutiny
📅 November 16, 2026
The board is scheduled to approve the 2026-2027 Campus Improvement Plans (CIPs) and District Improvement Plan (DIP). These foundational documents are often used to introduce ideological programs like ‘Social-Emotional Learning’ (SEL) or ‘Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion’ (DEI) without direct public debate.
Response

INVESTIGATE: Open the files attached to Items 11 and 12 in the Official Agenda (linked above). Search the Campus and District Improvement Plans for keywords like ‘equity,’ ‘SEL,’ ‘social justice,’ and ‘DEI’ before the board votes to approve them.

💰 Impact: Ideological Mission Creep
WATCH (LEVEL 4)
Requires Verification

Potential Change to Board Election Dates
📅 November 16, 2026
The Superintendent’s report includes an item on ‘Board Election Dates.’ Changes to election timing, such as moving them from a high-turnout November date to May, are a common tactic to reduce voter participation and protect incumbents.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask: ‘Regarding Item 8.D.5, is the board considering moving the date of trustee elections? Taxpayers oppose any change that would reduce voter participation.’

💰 Impact: Reduced Voter Turnout
