Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming EARLY ISD agenda and found 4 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
| WARNING (LEVEL 7) |
|
New Library Books Purchased Without Public Review
The board is set to approve a new list of library books for the Primary Campus. The list of books has not been published with the agenda, preventing parents from reviewing the titles for age-appropriateness before they are purchased with taxpayer money.
Response
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand the proposed book list for Item 7.J be posted online immediately. Ask the board to table the vote until parents have had at least one week to review the titles.
💰 Impact: Bypassing Parents
|
| WATCH (LEVEL 5) |
|
Mid-Year Changes to Employee Compensation Plan
The board is considering undisclosed changes to the current school year’s employee compensation plan. Without the proposed text, taxpayers cannot see if this involves unplanned raises or new positions that will increase the budget and future tax burdens.
Response
DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask for the proposed amendments to the 2026-2027 Compensation Plan for Item 7.D to be posted online before the vote.
💰 Impact: Potential Budget Increase

| WATCH (LEVEL 5) |
|
Secret Budget Amendments Proposed
The board plans to amend the current budget under Item 7.E, but the agenda provides no details on what is being changed or how much money is involved. This prevents any public scrutiny of new or shifted spending priorities before the board votes.
Response
INVESTIGATE: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) to request the full details of the proposed budget amendments for Item 7.E. Taxpayers deserve to see where their money is being moved before the board votes.
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Spending Changes
|
| WATCH (LEVEL 3) |
|
Secretive Local Policy Revision
The board is voting to revise local policy ‘CFB (LOCAL)’, which often relates to accounting and district assets. The proposed changes have not been made public with the agenda, preventing taxpayers from reviewing them before the vote.
Response
INVESTIGATE: Open the file attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) for Item 7.H to see the proposed changes to policy CFB (LOCAL). If no file is attached, ask the board to postpone the vote until the text is made public.
💰 Impact: Reduced Transparency
