Summary — 3/11/2026:
Our monitoring of Sycamore Community City, Local School District has identified 3 agenda items that warrant community action.
PRIORITY LEVEL 8
Using Your Tax Dollars to Fight School Choice
📅  March 11, 2026
The Board is hosting a political presentation titled "Vouchers Hurt Ohio." This is a taxpayer-funded lobbying session against school choice, which gives parents the freedom to choose the best education for their children. The Board should be focused on academics, not fighting parental rights.
Recommended Action
Call Board President Sara Bitter at (513) 686-1700: 'I demand the Board cancel the political 'Vouchers Hurt Ohio' presentation. School resources should not be used for lobbying against parental rights and educational freedom. Stick to academics.'
💰  Cost: Misuse of Public Funds for Lobbying
PRIORITY LEVEL 5
Vague Tech Contract Requires Manual Review
📅  Contract starts July 1, 2026
The Board is renewing a 3-year technology contract with DCTS. The agenda provides no details on what services are included. These contracts can contain provisions for student data collection and sharing. The attached PDF must be reviewed to ensure it doesn't compromise student privacy.
Recommended Action
INVESTIGATE: Review the file 'Sycamore Contract 2026-2029.pdf' attached in the Official Agenda to determine if it contains provisions for student data mining or surveillance.
💰  Cost: Undefined Liability (Data Privacy)
PRIORITY LEVEL 4
District's Mission Hides a Social Agenda
📅  March 11, 2026
The district's mission statement uses the term "whole child." This is often a Trojan horse for Social Emotional Learning (SEL) programs that shift focus from academics to subjective emotional and social issues, potentially overriding parental values and classroom discipline.
Recommended Action
Email Superintendent Chad Lewis via the district office: 'What specific programs and metrics are used to measure the 'whole child' initiative? I am concerned this is a backdoor for SEL curriculum. Parents expect a focus on academic excellence, not social engineering.'
💰  Cost: Ideological Scope Creep
