District May Opt Out of Federal Food Program
📅 November 18, 2026
The Superintendent is presenting a draft letter to request a waiver from participating in the Texas Department of Agriculture’s Summer Nutritional Program. This could be a positive move to reject a federal program that comes with strings attached, but the district should clarify its reasons for seeking the waiver.
How to Lock It In

SEEK CLARITY & AMPLIFY: Contact the Superintendent’s office to ask for a copy of the draft letter mentioned in Item 5.e.vi. If the district is seeking this waiver to escape federal overreach or burdensome regulations, attend the meeting to thank the board for protecting local control.
