Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for SHALLOWATER ISD. We found 5 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |
|
District Seeks Exemption From State Education Laws
The board is voting to approve a ‘District of Innovation’ (DOI) plan, which is hidden on the consent agenda. These plans allow districts to bypass state laws on everything from curriculum requirements to teacher certifications, often with little public oversight.
Recommended Action Plan
URGENT INVESTIGATION: The ‘District of Innovation’ plan is not attached to the agenda. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand a copy of the full plan be posted publicly before the vote. Ask: ‘Which specific state laws does the district intend to waive and why?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Bypassing State Law

| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
New Student Rules Hidden on Consent Agenda
The board is set to approve the 2026-27 Student Code of Conduct and Student Handbook without a separate discussion. These documents often contain new, controversial policies on student pronouns, gender identity, and ‘restorative’ discipline that undermine parental authority.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: The Student Handbook and Code of Conduct are not attached. Email the board (see Official Agenda link for contacts) and demand Item 7.D be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a full public discussion. Ask: ‘What changes have been made to the policies on discipline, pronouns, and bathroom access?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Rights

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
New Employee Handbook Signals Policy Shift
The board is reviewing the new Employee Handbook. This is often where districts introduce mandatory staff training on ‘implicit bias,’ DEI, and gender ideology, which directly impacts classroom culture and instruction.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: This is an ‘information item,’ but it’s a preview of future policy. Contact the District Office (see Official Agenda link) to request a copy of the draft Employee Handbook. Parents have a right to know what the district is requiring teachers to believe and teach.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Teacher Indoctrination
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague Partnership Agreement with Boys & Girls Club
The board is approving an agreement with the Boys & Girls Club via the consent agenda. While often a positive presence, any outside partnership can bring unvetted programming, staff, or ideology into our schools.
Recommended Action Plan
VERIFY THE DETAILS: The agreement/MOU is not attached. Contact the District Office (see Official Agenda link) and ask for a copy. Confirm that the agreement does not include ideological programming like SEL or DEI and that all staff have passed rigorous background checks.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Outside Influence
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 3) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The board is adopting revisions to its policy on students transferring from other districts. The details of this policy change are not included in the agenda and it is bundled on the consent agenda.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains sensitive policy changes. This is likely administrative, but worth a quick check.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Policy Change
