Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming EDUCATION CENTER INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY agenda and found 3 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
| WARNING (LEVEL 6) |
|
Undisclosed Details on Public Property Sale
The board is taking action on the ‘Sale of Rowlett Property’ with no details provided in the agenda about the sale price, the buyer, or how the proceeds will be used. Taxpayers deserve to know if they are getting fair market value for a public asset and where the money is going.
Response
DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask for the details of Item D.b., the ‘Sale of Rowlett Property,’ to be made public before any vote. Ask: ‘What is the sale price, who is the buyer, and what is the plan for the proceeds?’
💰 Impact: Potential Loss of Public Assets

| WATCH (LEVEL 5) |
|
Vague ‘Mental Health & Wellness’ Program
The board is reviewing a ‘TSSC Mental Health & Wellness’ program, a common entry point for introducing controversial Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) concepts into the classroom. These programs can also lead to student data collection without full parental transparency or consent.
Response
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) regarding Item D.d.1. Ask: ‘What curriculum and materials are used in the TSSC Mental Health & Wellness program, what student data is collected, and is there a clear parental opt-out?’
💰 Impact: Politicized Curriculum / Student Data Mining

| WATCH (LEVEL 4) |
|
Unknown Vendor in Bundled ‘Pilot Program’
Buried in the consent agenda for a quick, no-discussion vote is a ‘pilot program’ with an unknown vendor called ‘SpEasy.’ Pilot programs can commit the district to future spending and new systems without a transparent, competitive bidding process.
Response
PULL THE ITEM: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link) and demand Item E.b. be pulled from the consent agenda for a separate discussion and vote. Ask: ‘Who is SpEasy, what does this pilot program cost now, and what are the long-term financial commitments?’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Future Costs
