Bianca Seward reports:
Two years ago, political conservatives gained their 6-1 majority on the board and have since then implemented a number of right-wing policies, including aggressive book-banning practices, the addition of Bible-focused elective courses and deleting 13 middle school textbook chapters that touched on topics such as vaccines, diversity and climate change.
Over the last few years, a red wave captured several Houston-area school boards. In Katy ISD, Clear Creek ISD and Fort Bend ISD, conservative majorities took hold, but those same school boards have seen a recent swing back toward the center of the political spectrum.
Brandon Rottinghaus, a professor of political science at the University of Houston, said during early voting the Cy-Fair ISD race would say a lot about the shifting balance of power in big suburban school districts.
