Summary — 2/18/2026:
Our monitoring of Whitehall City, City School District has identified 3 agenda items that warrant community action.
PRIORITY LEVEL 8
Hiding Dozens of Votes in a Single Motion
📅  Vote on Feb 19, 2026
The Board is burying 18 new job descriptions and 29 policy changes inside the 'Consent Agenda.' This is a procedural trick to pass potentially controversial items in a single vote, preventing any public discussion or individual accountability from board members. They are banking on you not reading the fine print.
Recommended Action
Procedural Demand: Email Board President Darryl Hammock via the district office at (614) 417-5000. 'I demand that Items E.5 (Policy Amendments) and E.6 (Job Descriptions) be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and a full roll-call vote. The public deserves transparency, not bundled votes.'
💰  Cost: Undefined Liability
PRIORITY LEVEL 7
New 'Behavior Support' Bureaucrats Proposed
📅  Vote on Feb 19, 2026
Item E.6 creates new, non-teaching positions like 'Student Intervention Coordinator' and 'Alternative Learning & Behavior Supports Coordinator.' These titles are often Trojan horses for implementing Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and 'Restorative Justice' discipline, which can replace consequences with therapy sessions and undermine classroom safety.
Recommended Action
INVESTIGATE: Review the files 'SIC_ Job Description.pdf' and 'ALBS Coordinator_ Job Description.pdf' attached in the Official Agenda to determine if they contain SEL or 'Restorative Justice' mandates.
💰  Cost: Future salaries for new permanent staff
PRIORITY LEVEL 6
Secret Changes to Health and Truancy Policies
📅  Vote on Feb 19, 2026
The Board is voting on final approval for changes to 29 policies, including 'Health Education' (IGAE) and 'Truancy' (JEDA). The actual text of the proposed changes is not attached to this agenda item, preventing parents from seeing what's new. This could be a backdoor for radical curriculum or family surveillance.
Recommended Action
Public Question: Email Superintendent Sharee Wells at wellss@wcsrams.org: 'Regarding Item E.5, please provide the full red-lined text of the proposed changes to policies IGAE and JEDA before the Board votes. We will not accept blind policy changes.'
💰  Cost: Undisclosed Policy Changes
