The Road Ahead For George Scott Reports: Having “Done My Duty” In Recent School Board Election, Much Will Depend On Whether The New Board Members Want My Help Or Not; If Not, I’ll Pick Back Up On My Treatise On Texas Public Education Accountability In The Critical Years Of 1971-2011
Back in 1971, Federal Judge William Wayne Justice signed Civil Order 5281 formally and finally ending segregation in the State of Texas. In that order, he directed the Texas Education Agency to develop programs that would compensate minority group children for the damages incurred during the period when schools were racial islands. While a lot of water has flowed under the bridge since the ’separate...
Katy School Board Vote Could Be Labeled The Citizens’ “Last Will & Testament” Election; Passionate Early Vote So Strong That (In Good Humor) It Appears That Many Patrons Wanted To Vote Just In Case They Died Before Saturday
Just under 56% of the votes counted in incumbent school board candidate Chris Crockett’s failed attempt to defend her seat on the Katy I.S.D. School Board came before election day - a number that spelled doom to her, Judy Snyder, and two candidates associated as supporter of the administration of Supt. Alton Frailey. This election was over on the first day of early voting and it didn’t...
Congratulations To Bill Proctor, Henry Dibrell, & Terry Huckaby - Your Victory Represents An Enormous Opportunity; The Roadblocks Now Morph From Political To Legal & Institutional And They Are Taller & Tougher To Navigate
The public educational establishment in Texas is in shock this morning. They did not believe this could happen. They didn’t want it to happen. They are going to do everything they can to undo it, suppress it, fight it, whip it, and marginalize it. Katy I.S.D. is an iconic district to those who prosper within the industry’s billions of dollars of largesse. From the Texas Association...

Center Of Truth And Alton Frailey: Validation Or Repudiation - There Will Be No Rewriting Of The Meaning Of This Election When The Results Are Announced Later Tonight
This is a perfect election to gauge the soul of a community and the philosophical principles of people who call themselves conservatives by great majority in Katy. When last Chris Crocket and Judy Snyder faced re-election in 2008, there were just under 4,900 voters who went to the polls to send them both back to the Board along with Eric Duhon who chose not to seek his position again this year. Crockett...

Dr. Bill Proctor’s Election To The Katy I.S.D. School Board Is The Single Most Important Element Of This Community Achieving Any Serious Accountability Of Alton Frailey’s Center Of Truth; Dibrell, Huckaby, Gross, Yanoviak
Dr. Bill Proctor’s campaign to unseat incumbent Chris Crockett as a member of the Katy I.S.D. School Board is the single most important election this school district’s history since the late Dr. James Williams defeated Bill Kellond back in 1986 or so. I know that the majority of people in this community do not have a clue as to what I am referencing. But, history is a good teacher. Dr....
Saturday Is Election Day & It Is A Referendum On Alton Frailey’s Center Of Truth; Reform, Accountability At Stake
The races for the Katy I.S.D. School Board can be described easily. Each of the three races is a referendum on Alton Frailey’s administration and the school board’s performance in holding it accountable for its performance on a variety of fronts. Using the Great Ronald Reagan’s seering question about Jimmy Carter as a guide let’s ask: “Is Katy I.S.D. better off under...
KISD’s Future Starts Saturday; It’s Time To Start Dismantling Frailey’s Center of Truth Control Over School, Community
There will be no revisionist history offered Saturday night by me when the election results from Katy I.S.D.’s School Board elections are known. While we do not now know the results; we do know what the results mean. From the moment Alton Frailey assembled his workforce at the district’s start-of-the-year convocation and implicitly threatened his employees over the support of the bond...
