| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Staff Training on “Cradle to Career Community Schools”
A staff member is being sent to a “Cradle to Career Community Schools” conference. This model seeks to turn schools into hubs for social and health services, which can lead to school-based clinics and interventions that operate outside of parental oversight.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ANSWERS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask: ‘Regarding the ‘Community Schools’ conference in Item E.4.5, is the district planning to implement this model? Parents must be the primary decision-makers for their children’s health and well-being, not the school.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Bypassing Parental Oversight

Staff Sent to “All Means All” and “Inclusive Learning” Trainings
The district is spending over $2,400 to send multiple staff members to conferences titled “All Means All” and an “Institute for Inclusive Learning.” These are common euphemisms for training sessions focused on DEI, equity, and identity politics rather than academic instruction.
Recommended Action Plan
QUESTION THE SPENDING: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask: ‘Regarding the conference approvals in Item E.4.5, can the board provide the curriculum for the ‘All Means All’ and ‘Inclusive Learning’ trainings? Taxpayer money should fund academic excellence, not ideological training for staff.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $2,462+

“Early Detection” of Violent Behavior in Safety Plan
The district is approving a safety plan that includes “early detection of potentially violent behavior” and provisions for “disaster mental health services.” While safety is crucial, these programs can become systems for monitoring and profiling students’ attitudes and beliefs without full parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK FOR CLARITY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask: ‘Regarding the District-Wide Safety Plan (Item H.1), what specific criteria are used for ‘early detection of potentially violent behavior’? Who has access to this data, and what are the parental notification and consent procedures before any mental health intervention is initiated?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

Vague Policy Updates — Manual Review Required
The board is voting on first and second readings for policies on “Use of Email,” “Fixed Asset Accounting,” and “Grievance Procedure.” The attachments for these policies were referenced in the agenda but the text was not available for review.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the files attached to Items H.15 and H.16 in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether they contain sensitive policy changes. Important changes are often passed this way without public scrutiny.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Policy Changes

| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Numerous Counselors & Social Workers Hired on Consent Agenda
The consent agenda includes the hiring of multiple school counselors and social workers. While some support is necessary, a large-scale increase in these roles often signals a district’s shift away from academics towards school-based mental health services and Social Emotional Learning (SEL).
Recommended Action Plan
MONITOR & QUESTION: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Regarding the personnel hires in Item F.6, what is the district’s target student-to-counselor ratio, and how does this compare to the student-to-teacher ratio? Ensure the focus remains on academic achievement.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Shift from Academics to SEL
