Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Woodward-Granger Comm School District. We found 4 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7)
Rushing Through New “Instructional Materials” Policy
📅 2026-08-17
The board is voting to “waive the first reading” and immediately approve a new policy on Technology and Instructional Materials. This fast-tracks the policy, limiting the public’s ability to review changes that could affect what materials our children are exposed to in the classroom.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board President (verify contact info on the district website) and demand they do not waive the first reading for Policy 605.04. ‘Parents deserve time to review any changes to instructional materials policy. Table this for a proper first reading at the next meeting.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Parental Oversight
⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7)
Rubber-Stamping Unknown Statewide Policy Updates
📅 2026-08-17
The board is set for a final vote on a package of policy updates recommended by the Iowa Association of School Boards (IASB). These statewide recommendations often contain ideological language or policies that undermine parental rights, but the district has not specified which policies are being changed.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND DETAILS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Before the final vote on Item VI.ix, please provide a list of all specific policies being updated based on IASB recommendations, with a summary of the changes for each. We will not accept a rubber stamp on unknown policies.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Loss of Local Control
⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7)
Undisclosed Spending and Reports on Consent Agenda
📅 2026-08-17
The board plans a single vote on a Consent Agenda that includes the “List of Bills” and “Personnel Report,” but the documents detailing these items were not provided. This practice can be used to approve spending on controversial vendors or hiring of ideological staff without public discussion.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board President (verify contact info on the district website): ‘Pull the List of Bills (VII.iv) and Personnel Report (VII.iii) from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and vote. Parents have a right to know who the district is hiring and which vendors are being paid with our tax dollars.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Spending
⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6)
New “Disruptive Behavior” Policy Introduced
📅 2026-08-17
The board is introducing a new policy on “Disruptive Behavior.” Without the text of the policy, it’s impossible to know if this could be used to punish students for protected speech or to silence parents who speak out at meetings.
Recommended Action Plan

INVESTIGATE: The text for Policy 503.11 was not attached to the agenda. Contact the District Office to demand a copy of the proposed ‘Disruptive Behavior’ policy before the vote. Ask: ‘How does this policy define disruptive behavior, and does it protect the First Amendment rights of students and parents?’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Free Speech Rights
