Heads up! We have scanned the upcoming agenda for Rocky River City. We found 10 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |
|
Conscious Discipline SEL Contract
The Board is considering a contract with Conscious Discipline (Item 2.E), a known Social Emotional Learning (SEL) vendor. SEL programs often replace academic instruction with psychological manipulation and data collection, undermining parental authority.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email Superintendent Adham Schirg at schirg.adham@rrcs.org: ‘I demand full details of the Conscious Discipline contract (Item 2.E) be made public immediately, including curriculum, data collection, and parental opt-out procedures. We reject SEL in our schools.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed

| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Contract for ‘Educational Visioning’
The Board plans to approve a contract with Big Questions Institute for an ‘Educational Visioning’ initiative (Item 4.A). This vague term often hides ideological shifts and social engineering, diverting focus from core academics.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email Superintendent Adham Schirg at schirg.adham@rrcs.org: ‘I demand Action Item 4.A be pulled from the agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Parents deserve to hear the Board debate this vendor publicly and understand what “Educational Visioning” truly entails.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed

| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Board’s Legislative Lobbying Plan
The Governance Charter (Item 6.C) explicitly states a goal to ‘Continue development/execution of legislative advocacy strategy.’ This means the Board intends to use taxpayer resources to lobby for or against external state or federal legislation, taking political stances with public funds.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY: Email Superintendent Adham Schirg at schirg.adham@rrcs.org: ‘Parents demand the Board cease using taxpayer dollars for a “legislative advocacy strategy” (Item 6.C). Our schools should focus on education, not political lobbying.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying
|
| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Dating Violence Prevention Contract
The Board is contracting with ‘Love Doesn’t Shove’ for a dating violence prevention program at the high school (Item 2.C). These programs can be a Trojan horse for Comprehensive Sex Education or other ideological content without parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Email Superintendent Adham Schirg at schirg.adham@rrcs.org: ‘Regarding Item 2.C, what specific curriculum and materials will “Love Doesn’t Shove” use for dating violence prevention? Parents demand full transparency and review before implementation.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed
|
| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Public Comment Time Reduced
The Board’s public participation policy (Item 3.A) limits each speaker to two minutes. This severely restricts parents’ ability to voice concerns and engage in meaningful dialogue with the Board on critical school matters.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: Show up at the meeting on September 24, 2026, and sign up for public comment (Item 3.A). Demand the Board extend public comment time to allow for meaningful parental input.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Parental Voice
|
| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Board Limits Direct Parental Complaints
The Governance Charter (Item 6.C) directs parents with concerns to follow an ‘established process’ by contacting staff first, rather than directly addressing the Board. This creates bureaucratic hurdles and limits parents’ fundamental right to bring issues directly to their elected representatives.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ACCESS: Contact Board President Jessica Wilson at (440) 356-6000 and email Superintendent Adham Schirg at schirg.adham@rrcs.org: ‘The Governance Charter (Item 6.C) must not limit parents’ direct access to the Board for concerns. We expect our elected officials to be directly accountable to parents.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Parental Access

| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
Governance Charter’s Vague Vision
The new Governance Charter (Item 6.C) uses euphemisms like ‘Educational Visioning’ and ‘globally COMPETITIVE’ to describe district goals. These terms often mask ideological agendas like ‘Global Citizenship’ or ’21st Century Skills’ that can replace core academics with social engineering.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Email Superintendent Adham Schirg at schirg.adham@rrcs.org: ‘What specific programs and curricula will be implemented under the “Rocky River Experience” and “globally competitive” goals in the Governance Charter (Item 6.C)? Parents demand clarity on these vague terms.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Social Engineering
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague ‘Pirate Playbook’ Discussion
The agenda includes a discussion item titled ‘Pirate Playbook: Chapter 1’ (Item 6.F) with no further details or attachments. This lack of transparency for a potentially significant initiative raises concerns about hidden agendas or controversial content being introduced without public scrutiny.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Email Superintendent Adham Schirg at schirg.adham@rrcs.org: ‘What is the “Pirate Playbook: Chapter 1” (Item 6.F) and why are there no details provided? Parents demand full transparency on all discussion items.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed

Stronger Health Data Privacy
The Board is reviewing policies (PO 1619.01, Item 6.B) that strengthen privacy protections for student health information under self-funded group health plans, appointing a Privacy Official to ensure HIPAA compliance. This is a positive step for protecting sensitive student data.
How to Lock It In
PRAISE THE BOARD: Email Superintendent Adham Schirg at schirg.adham@rrcs.org: ‘Thank you for strengthening privacy protections for student health data (Policy 1619.01, Item 6.B). We appreciate your commitment to protecting our children’s sensitive information.’
✅ Why It Matters: None

| Major Win (LEVEL 7) |
|
Administrator Ethics Policy Adopted
The Board is reviewing an Administrator Ethics policy (PO 1200, Item 6.B) that requires administrators to keep confidential information private and refrain from using their position or public property for partisan political or religious purposes. This promotes neutrality and professionalism in schools.
How to Lock It In
PRAISE THE BOARD: Email Superintendent Adham Schirg at schirg.adham@rrcs.org: ‘Thank you for reinforcing administrator ethics (Policy 1200, Item 6.B), especially the commitment to keeping partisan politics and religion out of the classroom. This protects our children from ideological influence.’
✅ Why It Matters: None
