| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |
|
New ‘Threat Assessment’ Teams to Monitor Students
The board is approving Policy 236.1, which creates ‘Threat Assessment Teams’ to investigate students whose behavior may indicate a threat. These teams, trained in ‘avoiding bias’ and ‘trauma-informed’ approaches, can review student records, conduct searches, and examine social media to create an ‘Individualized Management Plan’ for your child.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This policy creates a student surveillance system that could target kids for non-conforming views. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘I do not consent to the district creating a secret behavioral file on my child. Vote NO on Policy 236.1, Item 5.2.’

Ideological Training Mandated for School Board Members
Policy 004 is being updated to require all newly elected and re-elected school board members to complete training that includes ‘trauma-informed approaches.’ This embeds a specific social-emotional ideology into the district’s highest level of governance, ensuring it influences all future decisions.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Board members should be trained on fiscal responsibility and academic excellence, not ideological frameworks. I oppose the mandate for trauma-informed training in Policy 004, Item 5.6.’

High School Handbook Embeds ‘MTSS’ Intervention System
The new Unionville High School Student Handbook, up for approval under item 5.4, officially includes a ‘Multi-Tiered System of Supports’ (MTSS). This framework allows the school to implement tiered behavioral and academic interventions, which often serve as a backdoor for SEL programming and mental health screening without requiring specific parental consent for each step.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘What specific interventions and screenings fall under the MTSS framework in the new UHS handbook? Parents have a right to know and consent before our children are subjected to behavioral or psychological programming.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Bypassing Parental Consent

District Confirms Use of ‘Climate Surveys’ on Students
The Safe Schools Report under item 11.1 confirms the district uses ‘Climate Surveys’ and is developing a plan based on the results. These surveys are often used to collect sensitive data on students’ attitudes, beliefs, and home life under the guise of improving school ‘climate,’ creating a data file on your child.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the Climate Surveys mentioned in Item 11.1, I demand the right to review the full survey and to opt my child out. Who owns the data collected from our children?’

New Title IX Policy Introduces ‘Restorative Justice’
Under item 5.5, the board is approving Policy 103.2, a new Title IX Nondiscrimination policy. This policy establishes a complex internal grievance process that includes ‘restorative justice’ as a method for informal resolution, replacing traditional discipline with a therapeutic, often political, process.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK QUESTIONS: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘What does ‘restorative justice’ mean in Policy 103.2? Parents are concerned this will lead to weaker consequences for serious offenses and pressure students into ideologically-driven mediation.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Weakened Discipline

Staffing Plan Confirms Social Workers In All Schools
Policy 126-AG-0, the district’s staffing plan, confirms the employment of Social Workers at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. This formalizes a school-based mental health infrastructure that can lead to counseling and interventions for students without full parental knowledge or consent.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the Social Worker positions in Policy 126-AG-0, what is the district’s policy for obtaining active parental consent before a student receives services? I formally request an opt-out form for all non-academic counseling.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Services Without Consent

Virtual School Contract – Manual Review Required
The board is approving an agreement with CCIU for the district’s virtual academy (UCFVA) under item 4.3. The actual contract, which dictates the curriculum and platform our virtual students will use, was not included in the agenda packet, preventing public review.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘UCFVA 2026-2027 contract.pdf’ attached to Item 4.3 in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains sensitive curriculum or data-sharing clauses before it is approved.

WIN: District Protects Taxpayers with Strong Legal Agreement
The district’s agreement with the Unionville Community Fair (Item 9.1) is a model of responsible governance. The MOU is carefully written to limit the district’s role to promotion only, explicitly shielding taxpayers from liability and requiring the fair to be fully responsible for its own insurance and safety.
How to Lock It In
AMPLIFY THIS WIN: Show up or email the Board to thank them for their diligence in protecting district taxpayers with the well-crafted MOU in Item 9.1. This sets a great precedent for all future community partnerships.

WIN: Policy Strengthens Oversight of Guest Speakers
Policy 131-AG-0, up for approval in the policy bundle (Item 5.5), creates a strong process for vetting guest speakers. It requires advance approval from the principal and explicitly prohibits unapproved student surveys and direct solicitation, giving parents a clear standard to hold the district accountable to.
How to Lock It In
SECURE THE WIN: Email the Board to express support for Policy 131-AG-0 under Item 5.5. Thank them for establishing clear rules that protect students from unvetted presenters and unauthorized data collection.
