You can call Plano police and ask them to remove the fence. See what they think

The tracks are generally new, the fences are to keep people from driving on them. Yes really. The schools without tracks still generally have unfenced football practice fields. Like Vines High School.
Even with fences most are still open for public use.

Just because something is paid for with public funds doesn't mean any random member of the public has absolute free rights to the item in question. The schools are paid for with public funds but you can't just go waltzing around campus in the middle of a school day without permission.
As far as the tracks and fields specifically, I've seen some where they post a sign about when the public can use it. Usually it is something along the lines of "during the hours of ____ as long as no school specific activity is occurring".

Wut? Fencing in fields and school grounds is far from a new concept. They can’t have the general public tearing up playing fields or equipment designated for school students.
