Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Dallas Center-Grimes Comm School District. We found 5 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |
|
Massive Policy Overhaul With No Public Text
The board is conducting a ‘First Reading’ for a long list of policy changes, including employee conduct and physical examinations, but has not provided the text of the proposed changes. This prevents parents from reviewing what could be major shifts in district policy affecting their children and their rights.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Table item 10a, the First Reading of board policies. The public cannot provide feedback on policies you have not made public. Post the full text of all proposed changes 48 hours before any vote.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Board Oversight

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Personnel Changes Hidden in Consent Agenda
The board is voting to approve a list of new hires, resignations, and position changes without making the list public in the agenda. Parents have no way of knowing if the district is hiring for ideological roles like DEI or ‘restorative justice’ coordinators.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The ‘Personnel Summary’ file is attached to the official agenda (linked above). Open it to see who the district is hiring. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Pull item 7b from the Consent Agenda. The public deserves to know who the district is hiring before you vote.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Personnel

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
New ‘School Counseling’ Consultant Hired
The district plans to pay ‘Schirmer Consulting LLC’ $5,000 for ‘school counseling and college and career readiness.’ This could be a backdoor for introducing Social Emotional Learning (SEL) or other psychological programming without parental review.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The agreement with Schirmer Consulting is attached to the official agenda (linked above). Open it to review the scope of work. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding item 7c, what specific curriculum or programming will Schirmer Consulting provide? Will parents have the right to review all materials and opt their children out?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $5,000

| 👀 MONITOR (LEVEL 5) |
|
Unknown Members Appointed to ‘Teacher Quality’ Committee
The board is approving the members of a ‘Teacher Quality’ committee that oversees teacher evaluations. The agenda doesn’t name the members or provide the committee’s guiding principles, which could be used to enforce ideological conformity in the classroom.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The ‘Teacher Quality (TQ) Overview Information’ file is attached to the official agenda (linked above). Open it to identify the proposed members and the committee’s charter. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Who are the proposed members for the TQ Committee under item 10f, and what is their selection process?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Ideological Gatekeeping
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague ‘Civil Rights’ Teacher Training
The board is approving a ‘Civil Rights Training for Meals in the Classroom for Teachers’ required by the USDA. The content of this training is completely undisclosed and could be used to introduce concepts like implicit bias or equity.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The training plan is attached to the official agenda (linked above). Open the file to see what this ‘Civil Rights’ training actually contains. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding item 7h, please provide the public with the full curriculum for the USDA-required Civil Rights training before it is approved.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Ideological Teacher Training
