Good morning, Tyler.

A group called No Kings held a protest at Bergfeld Park in Tyler—opposing the planned military parade—and their demonstration showed strong local disapproval of the parade.

Hundreds gathered on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard in Tyler Saturday morning to celebrate freedom, heritage, and resilience at the annual Juneteenth parade organized by the Juneteenth Association of Tyler+ the event concluded at Woldert Park where families enjoyed food, games, and a range of classic cars and motorcycles.

Last week, Pine Tree ISD board approved a preliminary 2025-26 budget showing a $2.1M shortfall—officials say new state funds under House Bill 2 could lessen the gap.

The district will amend the budget once final funding is confirmed—teachers will receive around $500 per month while support staff get about $35 per month.
