Investigation queue

What gets checked next

Apply the same scrutiny standard to every trustee: family/employment ties, district vendors, church/nonprofit links only when tied to public office, Chapter 171 disclosures, recusals, and votes. Current Harleton lead: Kevin Evers's Place 4 appointment and any Craig Evers relationship/current-role record require public-source confirmation before scoring.
Board agendas, minutes, videos, and consent agendas for the last 24 months.
Public-comment records and parent concerns stated in official meetings or public posts.
Student safety, discipline, bullying, SRO, and sex-based privacy policy decisions.
Curriculum, library, SHAC, sex education, health education, and instructional material decisions.
Campaign finance, ballot filings, candidate applications, and election results.
Conflict checks: district vendors, family employment, nonprofits, foundations, and cross-district employment.
Legal checks: civil litigation, criminal records, ethics complaints, grievances, TEA matters, and board sanctions from public records.
Positive records: student achievement, staff raises, safety improvements, transparent votes, and community service.
