Vote on For-Profit Online School Contract With No Public Document

📅 September 22, 2026

The district plans to approve a contract with K12, a for-profit online education company, to run a new ‘Online Academy Pilot.’ However, the actual contract detailing costs, terms, and performance metrics has not been made public, and the board is being rushed to vote to meet a deadline.

Response

Contact the Lamar CISD Board (see district website for contact info) and demand they postpone the vote on Item 5.A. ‘The public has a right to see the full contract with K12 before you vote to outsource our children’s education. Postpone this vote until the contract is published for review.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Contract Terms

✅ Wins to Defend

Good moves worth showing up to support so they stick.

District Adds Anti-DEI Clause to Superintendent Contract

📅 September 22, 2026

The board is updating its policy to make engaging in or assigning prohibited ‘Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion’ (DEI) duties a fireable offense for the Superintendent. This move puts teeth into state law and holds district leadership directly accountable for preventing ideological mission creep.

How to Secure It

Email the Lamar CISD Board (contact info on district website) to thank them for approving Item 4.B. ‘Thank you for holding leadership accountable by adding anti-DEI provisions to the superintendent’s contract. This is a crucial step in protecting our schools from divisive ideologies.’

✅ Why It Matters: Enforces State Law
