Texas Watchdogs is an independent, parent-powered platform committed to exposing misconduct, corruption, and criminal negligence within Texas school districts. We operate at the intersection of transparency and accountability, using public records, legal filings, and citizen-submitted evidence to ensure our communities—and our children—are protected.
We believe every parent has the right to know who’s working in their schools, how disciplinary matters are handled, and whether leadership is acting in the best interests of students. We publish facts. We uncover what others won’t.
Our Mission
