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

WARNING (LEVEL 6)

Requires Verification

Blank Check for Construction Change Orders

📅 October 12, 2026

The board is scheduled to vote on unspecified ‘Change Orders’ for ongoing construction projects. Without dollar amounts or justification provided to the public, this is a blank check that can lead to significant cost overruns paid for by taxpayers.

Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Whitesboro ISD board (see official agenda for contact info) and ask for a full, itemized list of the ‘Change Orders’ under Item 11, including their cost, to be made public before the vote. Taxpayers deserve to know the full cost of these projects.

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Project Costs

WATCH (LEVEL 5)

Requires Verification

Review Required for Campus Improvement Plans

📅 October 12, 2026

The board is set to approve the 2026-2027 District and Campus Improvement Plans without making them public beforehand. These plans can be a vehicle for introducing controversial curricula like Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) or other ideological content funded by taxpayers.

Response

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Whitesboro ISD board (see official agenda for contact info) and ask that the full text of the ‘District & Campus Improvement Plans’ under Item 6 be posted online for public review before any vote is taken.

💰 Impact: Hidden Ideological Agendas
