We reviewed the upcoming agenda for PRINCETON ISD and found 3 items with policy significance ahead of the vote.
| PRIORITY (LEVEL 7) |

Approval of Undisclosed Supplemental Instructional Materials
The board will vote on adopting ‘Supplemental Instructional Materials’ via the consent agenda. The specific materials, their content, and their cost are not detailed in the agenda, preventing public review before the vote.
Policy Use
PULL THE DOCUMENT: Item 7.D is for ‘Supplemental Instructional Materials’ with no attached text. Direct a records request to the District Office to obtain the list of materials and associated documents before the vote to check for ideological content.
Policy Lever: Curriculum Adoption

| WATCH (LEVEL 6) |

Expanding External Audit to Evaluate ‘Special Programs’
The board will vote to expand its Region 10 audit to include an ‘in-depth evaluation of Special Programs.’ The agenda does not define ‘Special Programs,’ which could encompass anything from special education to equity or social-emotional learning initiatives.
Policy Use
TRACK AND DOCUMENT: Request the scope of work for the expanded audit under Item 9 to identify which ‘Special Programs’ are being evaluated. This could be a precursor to programmatic changes driven by the auditor’s recommendations.
Policy Lever: Programmatic Audit

| WATCH (LEVEL 5) |

District Goal to Investigate Discipline Plan Improvements
The 2026-2027 district goals include a directive to ‘Investigate improvements to the current discipline plan in a manner that changes behavior.’ This language often precedes the introduction of restorative justice or other alternative discipline models that reduce consequences for misbehavior.
Policy Use
WATCH: The district has formally adopted a goal to investigate changes to its discipline plan, as seen in the ‘District Goals 2026-2027’ attachment. Monitor future board meetings for committee reports or first readings of revised discipline policies that may incorporate restorative practices.
Policy Lever: Discipline Policy Reform
