Summary — 2/18/2026:
Our monitoring of Ross Local, Local School District has identified 2 agenda items that warrant community action.
PRIORITY LEVEL 8
Hiding 15 Policy Changes in One Vote
📅  Vote Scheduled Feb 19, 2026
The Board is trying to pass 15 policy updates in a single 'consent' vote under Item 11.B. Buried in this bundle are sensitive changes to Health Education, Grading Systems, and Patriotic Exercises. This is a classic tactic to prevent public debate on each controversial item. They are counting on you not noticing.
Recommended Action
Procedural Demand: Email Superintendent William Rice at bill.rice@rossrams.com: 'I demand Item 11.B be pulled from the Consent Agenda. The public deserves a separate discussion and roll-call vote on each of the 15 policies listed, especially IGAE (Health Education), IKA (Grading Systems), and IND (Patriotic Exercises).'
💰  Cost: Undisclosed Ideological Changes
PRIORITY LEVEL 6
Vague Resolution on School Athletics
📅  Discussion on Feb 19, 2026
The Board is discussing a resolution from the Ohio High School Athletic Association (Item 8.B). These state-level bodies often push controversial policies on issues like gender in sports. The agenda provides a vague title and a document that requires manual review, preventing parents from easily understanding what the Board is considering.
Recommended Action
INVESTIGATE: Review the file 'doc02178420260205092550.pdf' attached to Item 8.B in the official agenda. If it contains policies that undermine fairness in sports or parental rights, call Board President Greg Young at (513) 863-1250 and demand it be rejected.
💰  Cost: Adoption of State-Level Ideology
