Undisclosed Employee Incentive Plan
📅 November 16, 2026
The board is set to approve an ‘Employee Incentive’ plan without disclosing the cost to taxpayers or the criteria for the payouts. This lack of transparency means the board is voting on a blank check with no public accountability.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Edgewood ISD board before the meeting. Ask: ‘Regarding Item 7.D, what is the total cost of the proposed employee incentive, and what are the specific performance metrics? This information must be public before any vote.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Taxpayer Funds

New Cell Phone Policy for Elementary Students
📅 November 16, 2026
The board is considering a new policy on student cell phone use at elementary campuses, but has not released the text of the policy. This prevents parents from reviewing whether the new rules would unacceptably restrict their ability to contact their young children during an emergency.
Response

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Edgewood ISD board and demand the full text of the proposed cell phone policy under Item 7.C be published online immediately. Parents have a right to review policies that affect their children’s safety and communication before the board votes.

💰 Impact: Restricted Parent-Child Communication
