Board votes not to adopt daily prayer/reading resolution under SB11
Summary
Trustees voted 5-0 to decline a resolution that would have adopted a period of prayer and reading of the Bible or other religious text on each school day pursuant to SB11; the motion not to approve passed unanimously among those present.
The Carrizo Springs CISD Board of Trustees considered a resolution to adopt a daily period of prayer and reading of the Bible or another religious text at campus level, citing SB11. Trustee Al Doria moved and Trustee Oscar Morones seconded a motion not to approve the proposed resolution; the motion carried 5-0 with two trustees absent, effectively rejecting the proposal.
The minutes record the motion and the vote but do not include supporting or opposing statements in the meeting excerpt. Because the board voted to decline the resolution, no new district-level policy adopting daily prayer and reading was enacted in this session.
