| ALERT (LEVEL 8) |

Undisclosed Budget Amendment Hidden on Consent Agenda
The board plans to approve ‘Budget Amendment #1’ as part of the consent agenda, a bundle of items passed without discussion. The district has not published the amendment, hiding what money is being moved, where it’s going, and why from public scrutiny.
Response
DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Wimberley ISD Board (see official agenda for contact info): ‘Pull Item 9.C from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Taxpayers deserve to see the details of Budget Amendment #1 before you approve it.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed

| WARNING (LEVEL 7) |

‘Social Emotional Learning’ Training in Campus Plans
Buried in the Wimberley High School Improvement Plan is a line item for ‘Social Emotional ongoing PD’ (Professional Development). This commits taxpayer funds and teacher time to controversial SEL programming, which often serves as a vehicle for political agendas in the classroom. The plan is bundled for approval on the consent agenda to avoid discussion.
Response
DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Wimberley ISD Board (see official agenda for contact info): ‘Pull Item 9.E from the Consent Agenda. What is the content and cost of the “Social Emotional ongoing PD” mentioned in the WHS plan, and which vendors will provide it?’
💰 Impact: Politicized Classrooms

Undisclosed Contract Amendment with Emergency Services District
The board is voting on an amendment to its contract with Emergency Services District #4, but has not provided the text of the amendment or any summary of the changes. This prevents taxpayers from knowing what new obligations or costs the district is agreeing to before the vote.
Response
DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Wimberley ISD Board (see official agenda for contact info): ‘Regarding Item 5.B, the public cannot evaluate the contract amendment with ESD #4 without seeing it. Please publish the proposed amendment and postpone the vote until the next meeting.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed
