Information is currency for democracy.                   - Thomas Jefferson

A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.    - Steve Martin

Education is unique among consumer products; when it fails to work as advertised, it's the customer that gets labeled as defective.         - Kevin Killion

Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can't practice any other virtues consistently. You can't be consistently kind or fair or humane or generous, not without courage, because if you don't have it, sooner or later you will stop and say, "The threat is too much. The difficulty is ...too high. The challenge is too great. ~ Maya Angelou

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Update:  The Eanes ISD War on Drugs and Alcohol ...

An update here including grant documents, public information requests, and a question:

How is Eanes ISD spending the hundreds of thousands of dollars in grant money, our tax dollars?

Public Information from the Eanes ISD 2008 check register*: 

9/2008   618.97   POSITIVE PROMOTIONS 204 E 11 6397 00 979 8 11 000

Title IV - Safe and Drug Free Schools PENCIL ORDER

$618 dollars worth of INSCRIBED PENCILS?

* KeepEanesInformed gathered the check register that includes accounting codes and descriptions.  The check register posted by Eanes ISD does not include the essential details of a check register.

During 2008, Eanes ISD applied for a U.S. Department of Education grant to battle the drug and alcohol problem in our district.  To win this grant, awarded to only 199 U.S. school districts and 5 Texas school districts, a district must evidence through a "competitive peer review process" and lengthy application process, that the problem is especially severe.  Eanes ISD proved this fact through its application and won the grant.
