Trustees press administration on campus capacity and accelerate security planning

WESLACO ISD Board of Trustees · March 10, 2025

Summary

Board members asked for detailed enrollment and capacity presentations for overcrowded campuses, discussed transfer and expansion options, and urged faster procurement of an integrated safety response system to protect students and staff.

Trustees raised repeated concerns about enrollment and campus capacity, naming Memorial, Margo and Cleckler Hill among campuses nearing or exceeding capacity. Members asked administration to present enrollment-by-campus capacity numbers and staffing implications at a future workshop and to study expansions or transfer-policy changes as needed.

On safety, trustees urged quicker deployment of an integrated quick-response system (radios/alert buttons/automated notifications) and suggested using the district's fund-balance projects to accelerate procurement so installations and staff training could be completed before the next school year. A public commenter had earlier urged urgency on a similar safety system.
