Parents and residents urge more recess, less technology and raise discipline concerns during Lockhart ISD public comment
Summary
Four public commenters asked the Board to address LDMC concerns, increase recess for PK–8, reduce student technology use, and resolve disciplinary issues at Lockhart High School during the April 27 public comment period.
During the public comment period, four community members addressed the Board with concerns about student wellbeing and school discipline. Sibohan Manasco raised LDMC-related concerns; Heather Pedersen requested increased recess for prekindergarten through eighth grade; Brandi Myers urged a reduction in student technology use citing themes from "The Anxious Generation"; and Sheila Hanna spoke about disciplinary concerns at Lockhart High School. The minutes record the topics but do not include extended quotations or board responses to each speaker.
The public comments were heard near the start of the meeting and did not prompt immediate board action during that agenda item. The minutes show the Board received these remarks but provide no follow-up motions or commitments; any administrative follow-up would be recorded separately in staff notes or future agendas if undertaken.
