Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Trenton Public Schools. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Personnel Hired Before Public Disclosure
The board approves ‘Regular Personnel Changes’ on the consent agenda, but the details are only released to the public *after* the vote. This prevents parents from reviewing the qualifications or potential ideological leanings of new hires, like a DEI coordinator, before they are approved.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Superintendent’s office at 734-676-8600 and email the Board. ‘I demand that all personnel changes, including new hires and their roles, be made public *before* the Board votes on them. Parents have a right to know who is being hired to teach their children.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Lack of Transparency

Vague Agenda Items Hide Potential Policy Changes
Multiple agenda items like ‘Old Business,’ ‘New Business,’ and ‘Other’ have no description or attached documents. This practice allows the board to introduce and potentially vote on substantive issues with no prior public notice, effectively hiding their actions from parents.
Recommended Action Plan
ATTEND & RECORD: Parents must attend the meeting to see what is introduced under these vague headings. Ask the Board President at the start of the meeting to please explain what will be discussed under items 5.01, 6.01, 7.01, and 9.01 so the public can follow along.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: No Public Notice

Public Comment Limited to 30 Minutes Total
The board’s policy limits the entire public comment period to 30 minutes, regardless of how many parents wish to speak. This can be used to shut down discussion on controversial topics if many parents show up to voice their concerns.
Recommended Action Plan
MONITOR & PREPARE: If a controversial topic is on the agenda, organize speakers to sign up early. If the 30-minute cap is used to silence parents, be prepared to publicly call on the Board President to waive the limit and hear all speakers.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Suppressed Parent Voices
