Carreon participated in the following survey conducted by the Sugar Land Sun. The questions provided by the Sugar Land Sun are bolded, and Carreon's responses appear below.
What are the two biggest challenges facing the school district? How will you as trustee help the district to meet them?
| “ | 1. Improve student education: A. Hire good skilled, trained and certified teachers willing to educate FBISD students on First Amendment rights and teachers who are bilingual. |
” |
| —Rodrigo Carreon (2017)[10] | ||
Do you support a tax ratification election in the fall? Do you support a 2018 bond election?
| “ | I will support a tax ratification for public's final vote of approval, if passed by public vote. But, I favor a new rezoning planning plan first, before next bond election is offered.[9] | ” |
| —Rodrigo Carreon (2017)[10] | ||
What one quality would you bring to the board that would help make you a good trustee to represent the residents?
| “ | Experience working with engineers, contractors and attorneys as part of my service on Fort Bend Freshwater Supply District No. 1. In 2007 I served on the bond committee for Fort Bend ISD.[9] | ” |
| —Rodrigo Carreon (2017)[10] | ||
Is there anything else you'd like to add?
| “ | Citizens and students are lacking in education to understand their First Amendment rights. I strongly support our First Amendment rights for students K-12 to learn and to be engaged in annual FBISD elections. So, for the first time FBISD needs to start offering teachers (government class) for training and certification to register students to vote. It only takes less then one hour for a teacher to be trained and certified by Fort Bend Election Department staff members. It is not enough for only high school principals to be trained and certified to register voters (students). It will be better for many teachers and/or just all government classroom teachers to be trained and certified to register voters (students) that can help improve and elect future good FBISD leadership by increasing voter turnouts to reach above 50 percent in future local city and FBISD elections.[9] | ” |
| —Rodrigo Carreon (2017)[10] | ||
2014
Carreon explained his reasons for running in 2014 in a survey published by the district:
| “ | Weak educating students of USA; 1st Admen. Right and low voter turnout. FBISD is underfunded, planning rezoning and set future bond plans.[9] | ” |
| —Rodrigo Carreon (2014)[11] | ||
