Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Upper Darby SD. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8)
Mass Mental Health Screening of Students
📅 August 25, 2026
The district is presenting results from the Pennsylvania Youth Survey (PAYS), which asks students in grades 6, 8, 10, and 12 invasive questions about their mental health, sadness, and suicidal thoughts. This data is then used to justify and expand programs like Social Emotional Learning (SEL), MTSS, and school-based outpatient services, creating a surveillance system that operates without parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the School Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the PAYS survey, what is the specific opt-out process for this invasive survey? Parents must provide active, written consent before any mental health screening is performed on their children, and we must have the right to review all survey questions in advance.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy
⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7)
District Considers 4-Day School Week
📅 August 25, 2026
A district committee is exploring a 4-day school week or a 5-day week with one “Flex Day” for students, citing teacher recruitment and retention. This radical schedule change would create significant childcare and logistical burdens for working families.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND A VOICE: Email the School Board (contact info on district website): ‘Parents must be central to any discussion about changing the school schedule. Before the board considers any “Act 80” changes, we demand a comprehensive plan addressing the childcare and financial impact on working families.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Parental Childcare Burden
⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6)
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
📅 August 25, 2026
The board is conducting a first reading of “Policy 105.2: Exemption From Instruction.” The title suggests this could impact parents’ rights to opt their children out of certain lessons, but the policy text was not provided in the agenda packet.
Recommended Action Plan

INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘8-11-26 Policy Report – 1st Reading – Policy 105.2.pdf’ attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether this strengthens or weakens parental opt-out rights.

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Parental Opt-Out Rights
