District Proposes Policing Student Behavior Off-Campus and After School Hours
Under the proposed ‘Policy JICDA Code of Conduct,’ the district claims disciplinary authority over students ‘at any time or in any place (including off school grounds and during non-school hours).’ This policy extends school authority into your home and family life, making the school the arbiter of your child’s behavior 24/7.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a massive overreach. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contacts) and sign up for public comment. Demand they strike the off-campus jurisdiction from Item I.1, Policy JICDA: ‘Parents, not the school, are responsible for children outside of school hours. Vote NO on this 24/7 surveillance policy.’
💰 Impact: School policing your child 24/7

Vague ‘Employee Conduct’ Policy Hides Potential Teacher Mandates
The board is holding a first reading for ‘Policy GBEB Employee Conduct,’ but the text of the policy has not been made available for public review in the agenda packet. These types of policies are often used to quietly introduce mandates for teachers regarding pronouns, DEI, or other ideologies that directly affect what happens in your child’s classroom.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘Policy GBEB Employee Conduct.docx’ attached to Item J.3 in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains sensitive policy changes. Email the Board: ‘Parents have a right to review all policy documents before a first reading. Post the text of Policy GBEB immediately and table the vote until the public has had time to review it.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Teacher Mandates

New Truancy Policy Enables Home Visits and Social Services Referrals
The first reading of ‘Policy JH Student Absences and Excuses’ establishes a system of ‘intervention’ for students with unexcused absences. This plan includes intervention teams with ‘representatives from social services, community mental health,’ and can lead to home visits and referrals to the Department of Social Services, inserting the school and state agencies into private family matters.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contacts) regarding Item I.1, Policy JH. Ask: ‘What specific conditions trigger a home visit or a referral to the Department of Social Services? Parents must have clear lines and protections before the district adopts a policy that invites outside agencies into our homes.’
💰 Impact: Government intrusion in your family

Board Appointing Delegates for State-Level Lobbying
Under item K.1, the board is certifying delegates for the ‘2026 Assembly,’ which is likely the South Carolina School Boards Association’s annual meeting where legislative platforms are decided. This is the first step in using local tax dollars to lobby the state legislature, potentially for policies that undermine parental rights.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contacts): ‘Regarding Item K.1, who are the proposed delegates for the 2026 Assembly, and what is the legislative platform they will be supporting with our tax dollars? We demand this be discussed publicly before any vote.’
💰 Impact: Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying
