Heads up! We have scanned the upcoming agenda for Zion-Benton Twp HSD 126. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6)
Behavioral Programs May Sideline Parents and Academics
πŸ“… October 1, 2026
The district’s strategic plan includes expanding its Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) and incorporating more ‘restorative practices’ to manage student behavior. While presented as academic support, these systems often collect sensitive student data and replace traditional discipline with therapeutic interventions, potentially without full parental knowledge or consent.
Recommended Action Plan

ASK FOR DETAILS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask the Board: ‘Regarding the planned expansion of MTSS and restorative practices, what specific staff training will be used, what data will be collected on students, and what is the explicit opt-out process for parents who prefer traditional discipline for their children?’
