Lorena ISD board declines to adopt SB11 daily prayer resolution
Summary
The board voted 7–0 not to adopt a resolution under SB11 providing for a daily period of prayer and reading of religious texts in the district.
At its Feb. 23 meeting, Lorena ISD's Board of Trustees voted not to adopt a resolution under SB11 that would establish a daily period of prayer and reading of religious texts.
Trustee Mary Timmons moved not to adopt the resolution and Trustee Jason Lavender seconded; the motion passed unanimously, 7–0. The transcript records the board's vote and the motion text but does not include extended discussion or the rationale for declining the resolution.
The decision means the district will not add a daily period of prayer or religious-text readings under the SB11 framework as part of district routine.
