WARNING (LEVEL 7)

Blind Approval of District & Campus Plans
📅 October 13, 2026
The board is set to approve the foundational Campus and District Improvement Plans without providing the documents to the public. These plans often contain controversial SEL or DEI initiatives, new curriculum mandates, and data collection schemes that parents and taxpayers have a right to review before they are approved.
Response

INVESTIGATE & DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Madisonville CISD board. ‘Regarding Item 6, parents and taxpayers must be able to review the Campus and District Improvement Plans before they are approved. Please table this vote and post the full plans online immediately.’

💰 Impact: Hidden SEL/DEI Programs
WARNING (LEVEL 6)

Secretive Change to District Investment Policy
📅 October 13, 2026
The board is voting to approve a new local investment policy without making the text of the policy public in the agenda. This policy dictates how the district’s funds are managed and could introduce politically-motivated ESG criteria, prioritizing activism over fiduciary responsibility to taxpayers.
Response

INVESTIGATE & DELAY: Contact the Madisonville CISD board. ‘The public must see the proposed Investment Policy under Item 5 before you vote. Please table this item until the full text of the policy is posted for public review.’

💰 Impact: Potential ESG Mandates
WATCH (LEVEL 5)
Requires Verification

Vague $100,000+ Gym Floor Project
📅 October 13, 2026
The board plans to approve a gym floor replacement costing over $100,000 with no details provided on the total cost, funding source, or vendor selection process. This lack of transparency prevents taxpayers from knowing if this is a necessary expense or a gold-plated upgrade.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Madisonville CISD board. ‘Regarding Item 4, what is the total cost, who is the vendor, and where is the money coming from for the gym floor replacement? Please provide the full contract for public review before any vote.’

💰 Impact: >$100,000 (Undisclosed Funding Source)
WATCH (LEVEL 4)
Requires Verification

Vague ‘All Staff Training’ Mandated
📅 November 11, 2026
The board is approving a mandatory, extended-day ‘all staff training’ on November 11th without disclosing the topic, the trainer, or the cost. These vague training sessions are often used to introduce controversial DEI, SEL, or other political agendas to staff on the taxpayer’s dime.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Madisonville CISD board. ‘Regarding Item 7, what is the topic of the November 11th all-staff training, who is the presenter, and what is the cost? This information should be public before the board approves the time.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Training Content
