| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 10) |
|
District to Pay Students for Health Survey Data
The district is approving a ‘health education’ program from an outside group, the NJ Physicians Advisory Group, funded by a federal grant. The agreement includes paying students with $20 gift cards to participate in surveys, creating a major privacy risk and incentivizing children to share sensitive health information without parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a critical threat to parental rights and student privacy. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Vote NO on the NJPAG agreement in item P.1. We do not consent to outside groups paying our children for their private health data.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

Three-Year Teacher Training Plan Embeds SEL
The board is approving a 3-year ‘Professional Learning Strategic Plan’ that makes ‘Adult Social-Emotional Learning (SEL)’ a core part of all teacher training. This plan ensures that ideological concepts like SEL, ‘resilience,’ and ‘belonging’ will be pushed into every classroom by embedding them in how teachers are taught to teach.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Parents want teachers trained in academics, not ‘Adult SEL.’ Vote NO on the 2026-2029 Professional Learning Strategic Plan (Item P.1) until all SEL components are removed.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Academics Replaced by SEL

Final Vote on ‘Equity’ Policy P 2260
The board is holding a second and final reading to adopt revised Policy 2260, ‘Equity in School and Classroom Practices.’ The full text of this policy was not included in the agenda packet, but ‘Equity’ policies are often used to justify politically-driven curriculum and unequal treatment of students.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE & SPEAK UP: The text for Policy 2260 is in an attachment. Go to the official agenda link, find Item Q.1, and open ‘Policy1. Policies 237 & 238 2nd Read (8.25.26).pdf’. Contact the Board immediately with concerns: ‘A vote on Policy 2260 must be delayed until parents can review the full text and its impact on our children’s education.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Politically-Driven Classrooms

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
District Accepting $2.5M in Federal Grants
The board is voting to accept over $2.5 million in federal ESEA and IDEA grant money. These large federal grants often come with ideological strings attached, mandating specific programs or data collection that bypass local parental control.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK THE HARD QUESTIONS: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Regarding the federal grants in Item R.1, what specific curriculum, training, or data-sharing requirements are attached to this $2.5 million? Parents have a right to know before you accept the money.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $2.5M (Federal Strings Attached)

District Adopts Ideological Mission Statement
The district’s official mission statement is being presented, centering on ‘diversity, equity, and inclusion,’ ‘culturally sustaining’ programs, and creating ‘global citizens.’ This language provides the official justification for pushing political agendas in the classroom instead of focusing on core academics.
Recommended Action Plan
PUT ACADEMICS FIRST: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link): ‘The district’s mission should be academic excellence, not political buzzwords. Revise the mission statement to prioritize core subjects and remove ideological language like ‘equity’ and ‘global citizens’.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Focus Shifted from Academics

| ALERT (LEVEL 3) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
Item K.1 references ‘August Committee Meeting Notes 8.25.26.pdf’, but the text of the notes was not available for review. Committee notes can contain early discussions of future policy changes that affect parental rights.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘August Committee Meeting Notes 8.25.26.pdf’ attached to Item K.1 in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains sensitive policy changes.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Discussions
