Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Saratoga Union Elementary. We found 4 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 10) |
|
Massive Policy Overhaul from CSBA
The board is doing a ‘First Reading’ of updates to ALL policy categories, from student issues to board bylaws, based on recommendations from the California School Boards Association (CSBA). This is a common tactic to quietly insert controversial policies on gender identity, DEI, and parental exclusion, written by an outside lobbying group.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM & INVESTIGATE: This is a critical threat. Open the ‘DRAFT Board Policy First Reading 08.13.2026’ file on the official agenda immediately. Email the board at board@saratogausd.org: ‘A wholesale policy update from CSBA is unacceptable. We demand a separate meeting to review every single policy change related to the 5000-series (Students) and parental rights before any vote.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Parental Rights

Vague ‘Contracted Services’ on Consent Agenda
The district is approving unspecified ‘Contracted Services’ as part of a bundled vote, hiding the details from easy public view. These types of contracts are often used to hire ideological consultants for DEI, SEL, or ‘Restorative Practices’ without a full public discussion.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘August 13 2026 Contracted Services’ attached to the Official Agenda (linked above) to identify the vendors. Email the board at board@saratogausd.org: ‘I demand Item 5.8, Contracted Services, be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and vote. Who are these vendors and what services are they providing our children?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
Student ‘Experience Survey’ Results Presented
The Superintendent is presenting results from a ‘School Experience Survey.’ These surveys often function as ‘Climate Surveys’ to collect sensitive data on students’ attitudes, beliefs, and home life under the guise of improving school culture.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the attachment ‘8-13-26 Board Meeting_2025-2026 SUSD School Experience Survey Results’ on the official agenda. Email the board at board@saratogausd.org: ‘Regarding the School Experience Survey, please provide a copy of the full survey given to students. What data is collected, who is it shared with, and was explicit parental consent obtained beforehand?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

Changes to Board Governance Handbook
The board is voting to approve changes to its own Governance Handbook. These changes can be used to limit public comment time, reduce board oversight, or make it harder for parents to hold the board accountable.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the ‘DRAFT Governance Handbook 08.13.2026’ file on the official agenda. Check for any changes to public comment rules, board member responsibilities, or transparency procedures. Email the board at board@saratogausd.org with any concerns.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Board Oversight
