CSISD to vote in September to certify compliance with Senate Bill 12

College Station ISD Board of Trustees · August 26, 2026

Summary

District staff said they have distributed the SB 12 required notices to employees, volunteers and will complete mailings to contractors; the board will be asked to vote on a certification that the district meets Education Code requirements by Sept. 30.

Miss Hester briefed trustees on the district's required annual certification under Senate Bill 12 (from the 89th Texas Legislature), which addresses parental rights and restrictions on certain DEI duties in public education. "No later than September 30 of each school year, the superintendent of the school district shall certify to the Texas Education Agency that the district is in compliance with the education code 11.005... and the education code 28.002," she said. Hester described the outreach steps already completed for employees and volunteers and said hard-copy mailings to contractors and service providers remain to be completed.

Hester said the compliance report will require the district to list policies and procedures and report how employees, contractors and volunteers were notified. She asked the board to expect the certification item on the September agenda once staff have finalized costs and documentation. Trustees confirmed they will vote on the certification after staff return with the completed paperwork and cost estimate.
