Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming HORIZON MONTESSORI PUBLIC SCHOOLS agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WATCH (LEVEL 5)
Taxpayer-Funded Radio Marketing Campaign
📅 October 22, 2026
The board plans to approve a marketing contract with Entravision radio for over $5,000. Taxpayers should question why a public school is spending significant funds on an advertising campaign rather than on direct classroom instruction.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Regarding Item 7.A, what is the total cost and purpose of this marketing contract? Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask how this spending directly benefits current students.

💰 Impact: >$5,000
WATCH (LEVEL 4)
Requires Verification

Vague ‘Improvement Plan’ Up for Vote
📅 October 22, 2026
The board is voting on a ‘Local Improvement Plan’ (LIP) without providing the text of the plan in the public agenda. This prevents parents and taxpayers from reviewing potential changes to curriculum or school policy before they are approved.
Response

INVESTIGATE: The ‘Local Improvement Plan’ in Item 6.A is not included in the agenda. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand the full text of the plan be posted online before the vote.

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Policy Changes
