Undisclosed Spending on Consent Agenda
The board is set to approve one or more purchases exceeding $50,000 as part of the bundled ‘Consent Agenda,’ but the agenda provides no details on what is being bought. This practice hides significant spending from public scrutiny, preventing parents from knowing how their tax dollars are being used in the classroom.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Jarrell ISD Board of Trustees (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) and demand that Item 6.D, ‘Purchases over $50,000,’ be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. The board must publicly disclose what is being purchased before any vote is taken.
💰 Impact: Undisclosed

District to Create New, Undisclosed Staff Positions
The board will vote on creating ‘Additional Positions’ for the district, but the agenda gives no information about what these roles are or how much they will cost taxpayers. This secrecy prevents parents from weighing in on new hires that could directly impact classroom focus and district priorities, such as adding ideological staff.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK FIRST: Contact the Jarrell ISD Board of Trustees (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) before the meeting. Ask: ‘Regarding Item 9.A.1, what specific positions is the board considering creating? Please provide the job titles, descriptions, and salary ranges for these roles before the vote.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Salaries
