📄 View Official Agenda
Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming KIRBYVILLE CISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WARNING (LEVEL 6)
Undisclosed Budget Amendment on Consent Agenda
📅 November 16, 2026
The board is set to approve one or more budget amendments without individual discussion by placing them on the consent agenda. The purpose and dollar amount of these changes are not disclosed, preventing public scrutiny of how taxpayer money is being reallocated mid-year.
Response

DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Kirbyville CISD board and demand that Item 2.D, the budget amendment, be pulled from the Consent Agenda for separate discussion and a roll-call vote. Taxpayers deserve to know exactly what this amendment funds before it’s approved.

💰 Impact: Undisclosed
WATCH (LEVEL 4)
Requires Verification

Vague ‘ERate Project’ with Federal Ties
📅 November 16, 2026
The board will vote on a $26,311 ‘ERate Project Proposal.’ The E-Rate program is a federal subsidy that can come with data privacy and compliance strings attached, but no details about this specific project are provided in the agenda.
Response

INVESTIGATE: The agenda for Item 3.I references a ‘proposal.’ Contact the Kirbyville CISD board and ask them to publish the full proposal online before the vote so taxpayers can see what federal requirements are attached to this $26,311 project.

💰 Impact: Potential Federal Strings
