Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Groveport Madison Local. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9)
District Approves High-Cost Contract School Psychologist
📅 2026-08-07
The board is approving a contract with Amergis to hire a School Psychologist at a bill rate of $120 per hour. This external contractor will be working directly with students, potentially in roles involving mental health assessments and interventions that could occur without full parental awareness or consent.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Call Board President Latoya Dowdell-Burger at (614) 492-2520. Ask: ‘Why is the district spending over $150,000 on a contract psychologist instead of a direct hire? What specific parental consent policies will govern this contractor’s interactions with our children, especially regarding mental health screenings?’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: $151,200+ Annually (Est.)
🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8)
Union Agreement Hidden From Public Review
📅 2026-08-07
The board is scheduled to approve a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Groveport Madison Local Education Association (GMLEA), the local teachers’ union. The actual document has not been attached to the public agenda, preventing parents from reviewing its contents before the vote.
Recommended Action Plan

PACK THE ROOM & DEMAND DELAY: This vote must be stopped until the document is public. Call Board President Latoya Dowdell-Burger at (614) 492-2520 and attend the meeting. State: ‘We demand the board table the vote on the GMLEA MOU until the full text is posted for public review for at least 72 hours. Do not vote on secret union deals.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Teacher Accountability
⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6)
Staffing Contract Opens Door to Student Tele-Health Services
📅 2026-08-07
The district is approving a contract with Soliant, a staffing agency, which includes a provision for ‘telepractice services’ through a provider called VocoVision. This could allow for remote therapy or health services delivered to students via a screen, potentially reducing direct parental oversight and involvement.
Recommended Action Plan

SEEK CLARITY: Call any board member at (614) 492-2520. Ask: ‘Regarding the Soliant contract, what specific services will be provided via tele-health, and what is the district’s policy for obtaining explicit, written parental consent before any student participates in a remote session with a contractor?’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy
