Description:  Consideration of Senate Bill 11 (89th Legislative Session), codified in Texas Education Code §25.0823, regarding the Board’s option to designate a daily period at each campus for students and employees to pray and read the Bible or other religious texts.


Senate Bill 11, passed last year, allows the board of trustees of a school district or the governing body of an open-enrollment charter school to adopt a policy requiring every campus of the district to provide students and employees with an opportunity to participate in a period of prayer and reading of the Bible or other religious text on each school day. Participation requires parental consent, and any religious activities must not be conducted over loudspeakers or in the presence of students without consent. Districts are required to vote on whether to implement this policy within six months of the law’s effective date, which is March 1, 2026.   

If adopted, the Board will also contact a policy consultant for recommended policy language at DGA (LOCAL) and FNA (LOCAL) to implement the daily period of prayer and reading of the Bible or other religious text.

Description:  In accordance with Texas Government Code (Open Meetings Act) the Board may move into closed session for the following reasons:  Section 551.071- For the purpose of a private consultation with the Board's attorney on any or all subjects or matters authorized by law.  Section 551.074- For the purpose of considering the appointment, employment, evaluation, reassignment, duties, discipline or dismissal of a public officer or employee or to hear complaints or charges against a public officer or employee.  Section 551.082- Certain school board deliberations.
