Our monitoring of Pike-Delta-York Local, Local School District has identified 3 agenda items that warrant community action.
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 8
|
|
Secret Changes to Grading and Class Rank
|
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 11, 2026
|
The Board is voting to replace grading (Policy 5421) and class rank (Policy 5430) policies without publishing the new text. This is a common tactic to introduce 'equity grading,' which lowers academic standards by removing penalties for late work and de-emphasizing test scores, hurting high-achieving students.
Recommended Action
Call Board President Alice Simon at (419) 822-3391: 'I demand the vote on Policies 5421 and 5430 be tabled until the full text of the proposed changes is posted for public review. We will not accept secret changes to our children's academic standards.'
|
💰 Cost: Undefined Liability (Lowered academic standards)

PRIORITY LEVEL 7
|
|
New AI Policy Voted on in the Dark
|
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 11, 2026
|
The Board is replacing the district's Artificial Intelligence policy (7540.09) without allowing public review. These policies can authorize student data mining, digital surveillance, and biased learning platforms that replace teachers with algorithms. Parents have a right to know what technology is being used on their children.
Recommended Action
Call Superintendent Douglas Ford at (419) 822-3391: 'Regarding Policy 7540.09, the public must see the text before you vote. What specific AI vendors will this policy authorize, and who will own our students' data?'
|
💰 Cost: Student Data Privacy Risk
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 6
|
|
Opening the Door to Federal Grant Money
|
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 11, 2026
|
The Board is revising its policy on accepting federal grants (Policy 6325) without showing the public the new language. This could loosen oversight and make it easier to accept 'free' money from Washington that comes with ideological strings attached, mandating specific curricula or data-sharing on students.
Recommended Action
Call the District Office at (419) 822-3391 and ask for Treasurer Leland Hays: 'Before the Board votes on Policy 6325, confirm that the new language preserves the Board's full authority to reject any federal grant that imposes ideological curriculum or data-sharing mandates.'

💰 Cost: Hidden Future Costs (Federal Strings Attached)
