District Plan Embeds Social-Emotional Learning (SEL)
The 2026-2027 District Improvement Plan, bundled within the consent agenda for quick approval, calls for a “consistent systematic social-emotional learning program.” The plan explicitly names the SEL program “Character Strong” and relies on student surveys to measure “social and emotional growth,” shifting focus from academics to subjective emotional metrics.
Response
DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Board (see district website for contact info): ‘I demand the ‘2026-2027 District and Campus Improvement Plans’ be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Taxpayers fund academics, not social-emotional engineering. Vote NO on adopting this plan.’
π° Impact: Mission Drift, Student Data Mining

New Rule Slashes Public Comment Time
The board’s public comment policy reduces speaking time as more people sign up. If seven or more citizens wish to speak, their time is cut from a potential 5 minutes to just 2 minutes each. This rule discourages public participation on popular issues and limits the ability of taxpayers to fully address the board.
Response
Contact the Board (see district website for contact info): ‘The public comment policy that cuts speaking time to 2 minutes when 7 or more people sign up is a gag rule. Restore a consistent 3-5 minute speaking time for all citizens, regardless of how many wish to be heard.’
π° Impact: Reduced Public Access

Vague Title β Manual Review Required
The board is set to approve the “2026-2027 Professional Development Plan.” These plans can be a vehicle for introducing controversial DEI or “equity” training for teachers on the taxpayer’s dime, but the actual plan document is not included for public review.
Response
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘MVISD Professional Learning Plan’ attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains DEI, equity, or other politically-charged training mandates for teachers.
π° Impact: Politicized Teacher Training

Vague Title β Manual Review Required
The board is scheduled to award a contract, “RFCSP 27-001 for the Elementary # 7 project,” for a new school construction. The agenda provides no details on the vendor, the cost, or the terms of the agreement, preventing public review before the vote.
Response
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for ‘RFCSP 27-001’ attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm the vendor, total cost, and payment terms before the board votes.
π° Impact: Undisclosed
