Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming LEXINGTON ISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.

WARNING (LEVEL 6)

Requires Verification

Vague Library Book Approval List

📅 October 12, 2026

The board is voting to approve a list of new library books for purchase and donation. The specific titles on this list are not disclosed in the agenda, preventing parents and taxpayers from reviewing the materials for age-appropriateness before the vote.

Response

INVESTIGATE: Contact the Lexington ISD administration before the meeting. Ask: ‘Please provide the public with the full list of library materials being considered for approval under Item 8.b so parents can review it before the board votes.’

💰 Impact: Bypassing Parental Review

WATCH (LEVEL 4)

Requires Verification

Undisclosed Cost for New Field Lights

📅 October 12, 2026

The board plans to approve the purchase of new LED lighting for the district’s baseball field without disclosing the total cost to the public in the agenda. This lack of financial transparency prevents taxpayers from assessing whether this is a responsible use of district funds.

Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Board of Trustees before the meeting regarding Item 8.d. Ask: ‘What is the total cost of the new baseball field lighting, and how is this purchase being funded? This information should be public before any vote.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed
