School Library Materials: Senate Bill 13 Compliance and PfISD Selection Process
Texas Senate Bill 13 (89R) established new requirements governing how public school districts select, review, and acquire library materials. Under the law, the Board of Trustees must approve all school library materials prior to purchase or donation, and all proposed titles must be posted publicly for a minimum of 30 days to allow for community input before any acquisition is made. Pflugerville ISD Library and Media Services staff have developed a proposed list of titles in compliance with these statutory requirements and are advancing the list for Board of Trustees consideration at the July 2026 Regular Board Meeting.
The proposed list has been curated according to two primary selection criteria. Each title must have received a positive review from a recognized professional review journal, such as Kirkus Reviews, Booklist, School Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, or The Horn Book, or must directly support district curriculum and instructional goals. All titles have additionally been evaluated for age appropriateness relative to the grade level served, and every selection conforms to the Texas State Library and Archives Commission (TSLAC) mandatory collection development standards, aligning the district’s acquisition process with established state requirements for school library collections.
The required 30-day public comment period has been completed with no public comment received. Board approval of any title on the list extends to all associated ISBN formats, including paperback, hardcover, electronic book, and audiobook editions, but does not extend to derivative adaptations such as graphic novels, which require separate review and approval. The proposed list is presented as a consent agenda item at the July Regular Board Meeting. Board approval will authorize Library and Media Services staff to proceed with the acquisition of the approved titles in accordance with Senate Bill 13 and Board Policy EFB.

Special Meeting of the Pflugerville Independent School District Public Facility Corporation
In 2021, Pflugerville ISD established the Public Facility Corporation (PFC) to provide additional financing options for the district’s growing facility needs. Through the PFC, the district was able to purchase the former Calvary Church of Austin property located near the district’s central office, creating opportunities to better support district operations and future growth.
The PFC is governed by the same elected members who serve on the Pflugerville ISD Board of Trustees, ensuring that decisions about district facilities remain aligned with the Board’s vision and priorities for students.
The Corporation’s Bylaws require the PFC to hold an annual meeting each year. This meeting promotes transparency, provides accountability to the community, and allows the Board to review the corporation’s activities and future plans for supporting the district’s facilities.

As part of the Public Facility Corporation (PFC) financing transaction for the purchase of Calvary Church of Austin, the PFC Board will receive an update on recent PFC activities. This update will cover the Corporation’s capital plan, as required by Section 4.1(c) of the PFC Bylaws.

Approval of Corporate Budget for the Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2027
Each year, the Public Facility Corporation (PFC) adopts an annual budget, as required by its bylaws.
