Public commenter says Senate Bill 10 will place ten‑commandments posters in classrooms
Summary
A community speaker notified the Brazosport ISD board that she and allied groups will deliver ten‑commandments posters to district classrooms under a recently passed measure she identified as Senate Bill 10, effective Sept. 1.
During the public‑comment period, Linda Kellogg addressed the Brazosport ISD board to say that a recently passed measure she identified as Senate Bill 10 requires ten‑commandments posters to be placed in classrooms and that volunteers are preparing to deliver them.
Kellogg said the posters are standardized by the law (she described them as about 13 by 20 inches and black‑and‑white) and that a coalition of ministries and advocacy groups is coordinating distribution. "The law is pretty specific. It's the size and what it's going to say," Kellogg said, and she told trustees volunteers planned to deliver the posters to the FM building for district distribution; according to her remarks the bill would go into effect Sept. 1.
Her remarks were made during the audience comment segment; the board did not take action or respond with formal policy changes during the meeting. District staff and trustees did not present a staff interpretation of the statute during the meeting record, and the board did not vote or direct implementation based on the comment at this session.
