| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 10) |
|
District Creates $130k “Anti-Hate Education” Coordinator Position
The district is giving a massive salary increase (to $130,000) to a “Coordinator of Civic Engagement and Anti-Hate Education.” These titles are often used to push political activism and divisive ideologies like Critical Race Theory into the classroom, paid for by your tax dollars.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a direct pipeline for political activism in our schools. Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘I demand you vote NO on the salary adjustment for the ‘Coordinator of Anti-Hate Education’ in item 5.A. We need academics, not activism.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $130,000 Salary

| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |
|
District Spending $31k on “Diversity/Inclusion” Staff Training
The board is renewing a $30,960.86 contract with Vector Solutions for “Diversity/Inclusion Training.” This is mandatory ideological training for staff that often promotes divisive concepts about race and identity, which then trickle down into the classroom.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Regarding item 5.D.3, I demand to see the full training materials from Vector Solutions before you approve this $31,000 contract. Parents have a right to know what ideology our teachers are being trained in.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $30,960.86

Tech Vendor Expanding Student Data Collection
The district is amending its data privacy agreement with “Transition Curriculum, Inc.” because the company is updating its “NextUp/Amplitude” software to collect more student data. This expansion of data collection is being approved without clear information on what new data points are being stored about our children.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Regarding item 5.H.8, what specific new data points will be collected on students? I demand a clear opt-out process for this expanded data collection before you approve the amendment.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

District Pushing “Pyramid Model” SEL on Preschoolers
The board is renewing a contract with SPEC, Inc. to implement the “Pyramid Model” and “Practice-Based Coaching” in its Early Head Start programs. The Pyramid Model is a formal Social Emotional Learning (SEL) framework designed to shape the behaviors and emotions of children as young as toddlers.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ANSWERS: Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Regarding item 5.B.4, parents should be teaching their toddlers social skills, not the school district. Vote NO on the contract with SPEC, Inc. and its ‘Pyramid Model’ SEL program.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Social Engineering for Toddlers

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Bullying Policy Update Could Hide Gender Ideology
The board is amending the Bullying/Cyberbullying policy (Policy 249) based on recommendations from the Pennsylvania School Boards Association (PSBA). These updates are often used as a backdoor to insert controversial gender identity, pronoun, and speech policies without a full public discussion.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND A PUBLIC READING: Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Regarding item 5.A.2, I demand a full public reading of all changes to Policy 249. Do not hide gender ideology in a bullying policy update.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Speech Rights
|
| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Teacher Training in “Cultural Competence”
The district is paying Seidlitz Education, LLC over $6,000 for a teacher training session on “Supporting Persistence of Multilingual Learners with Cultural Competence.” “Cultural Competence” is a key phrase in DEI and Critical Race Theory training, which can lead to viewing students through a political lens instead of as individuals.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Regarding item 5.G.19, parents have a right to see the training materials for the ‘Cultural Competence’ session. Please make these public before approving the contract.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $6,115.50
|
| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
Public Comment Time Severely Restricted
The agenda states that visitors are allotted “no more than two minutes per person” to comment on agenda items. This is an extremely short time frame that limits parents’ ability to meaningfully address the board on complex issues affecting their children.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TO BE HEARD: Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Two minutes is not enough time for parents to address the board on important issues. We demand you extend public comment time to allow for meaningful community input.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Parental Voice
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
Under item 5.C.3, the board is approving multiple program budgets for the 2026-2027 school year. The agenda references attached PDF files for these budgets (e.g., “521 ECFCS Early Head Start COTRAIC”), but the text of these files was not available for analysis.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the files attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) under item 5.C.3 to confirm whether they contain sensitive policy changes or questionable spending.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed
