Heads up! We have scanned the upcoming agenda for JORDAN PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT. We found 6 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
Item 7.3, ‘Review and Act on Assurance of Compliance 2026-2027,’ is an action item with no description or attached document. These ‘Assurance of Compliance’ documents are often required to accept federal or state grants that come with ideological strings attached, such as mandatory DEI or SEL programs.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file attached to Item 7.3 in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains sensitive policy changes. If it commits the district to federal oversight or ideological programs, demand it be pulled for a full public discussion.
💰 Impact: Federal Strings Attached

District Restricts Parent and Taxpayer Speech at Board Meetings
Under Agenda Item 5, the district is enforcing restrictive public comment rules. Parents must register to speak by noon on the day of the meeting and are prohibited from making complaints against any employee or board member in public, forcing all criticism into private channels without public accountability.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the School Board (contact info on district website). ‘Regarding Item 5, the public comment policy creates barriers to free speech. We demand you remove the pre-registration requirement and allow for public criticism of official conduct, which is essential for accountability.’
💰 Impact: Suppressed Public Oversight

| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
Item 7.1 calls for the board to ‘Review and Act on 2026-2027 CACR Plan.’ The acronym ‘CACR’ is undefined and no plan is attached, hiding the substance from public view. These types of plans are often used to embed ‘Social Emotional Learning’ or ‘Equity’ initiatives into college and career readiness programs.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file attached to Item 7.1 in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains sensitive policy changes. Email the board: ‘What does the CACR Plan entail and why was the document not made public with the agenda? Parents deserve to review it before you vote.’
💰 Impact: Hidden Curriculum

Policy Allows Search of Your Child and Their Belongings Without Notice
Policy 502, up for review on the Consent Agenda (Item 6.4.1), allows school officials to search a student’s personal possessions (backpack, purse) and their person based on ‘reasonable suspicion.’ The policy does not require parental notification before a search, only ‘as soon as practicable after,’ which is too late.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the School Board (contact info on district website): ‘Pull Item 6.4.1, Policy 502, from the Consent Agenda. We demand an amendment requiring parental notification and consent before any search of a minor child’s person or personal belongings.’
💰 Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |

Parking Permit Requires Consent to Warrantless Vehicle Searches
Policy 527 (Item 6.4.5) grants officials the right to search the interior of a student’s vehicle on school property based on ‘reasonable suspicion,’ without a warrant. To get a parking permit, both the parent and student must sign a form acknowledging and agreeing to this policy, making consent a condition of parking at school.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the School Board (contact info on district website): ‘Pull Item 6.4.5, Policy 527, from the Consent Agenda. Forcing students and parents to consent to warrantless vehicle searches in exchange for a parking permit is coercive and unacceptable.’
💰 Impact: Forced Consent

✅ Wins to Defend
Good moves worth showing up to support so they stick.
|
| Win (LEVEL 5) |
|
WIN: Policy Protects Student Rights to Form Religious and Political Clubs
Policy 801, ‘Equal Access to School Facilities,’ correctly implements the federal Equal Access Act. This policy creates a ‘limited open forum’ that protects the rights of students to form non-curricular clubs, such as Bible studies or conservative groups, and meet on school property during non-instructional time.
How to Lock It In
SECURE THE WIN: Show up to thank the Board for upholding students’ First Amendment rights with Policy 801 (Item 6.4.16). Publicly supporting good policy makes it harder to weaken or reverse it later and provides a model for other districts.
✅ Why It Matters: Student Free Speech Protected
