New ‘Gifted Seminar’ Trains Students for Community Action
The proposed ‘Gifted Seminar: Community Innovation & Impact’ (Item 4.B) is a year-long course where students ‘investigate authentic needs’ and ‘develop evidence-informed responses’ in the community. This ‘service-learning’ framework can easily be used to steer gifted students into political activism and community organizing based on the district’s preferred social agendas.
Recommended Action Plan
QUESTION THE AGENDA: Contact the board (see district website for emails): ‘Regarding Item 4.B, what “community needs” will students be investigating, and who determines if they are “authentic”? Parents must be assured this course will not be used for political activism or to push a social agenda on our most advanced students.’
💰 Impact: Student Activism Training

District Moving Grading Policy Out of Public View
In the draft Program of Studies (Item 5.A), the district notes that ‘Grading Guidelines’ have been moved to a separate, unattached document. This reduces transparency and makes it harder for parents to find and understand how their children are being graded, potentially hiding controversial practices like ‘equity grading’.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the board (see district website for emails): ‘Regarding the Program of Studies draft (Item 5.A), the Grading Guidelines must be included directly in the Program of Studies, not hidden in a separate document. We demand this document be made public for review before any vote.’
💰 Impact: Hidden Grading Policies

District Discussing ‘School Climate’ Surveys and Data Collection
The September 14th meeting minutes (Item 3) reveal the administration is focusing on ‘school climate’ and discussed ‘surveying and data collection.’ These surveys often contain intrusive questions about students’ personal beliefs, attitudes, and home life, and are used to justify SEL and DEI programs.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK FOR DETAILS: Email the board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the approval of the 9/14 minutes (Item 3), what specific “school climate” surveys were discussed? Parents have a right to review any survey before it is given to students and to opt their children out.’
💰 Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

New French Course Pushes ‘Global Competence’
The proposed ‘French 1’ course (Item 4.A) is justified not just for language skills, but for developing ‘global perspectives,’ ‘intercultural competencies,’ and ‘global competence.’ This language is often a gateway to ‘Global Citizenship’ programs that can prioritize globalist viewpoints over American values and focus on social issues instead of language fluency.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ACADEMIC FOCUS: Contact the board (see district website for emails): ‘Regarding Item 4.A, the French 1 curriculum should focus on language and culture, not on developing “global competence.” Please ensure the curriculum materials are academically focused and free from political or social agendas.’
💰 Impact: Focus on Activism, Not Academics

New FAFSA Mandate for Graduation
The 2027-2028 Program of Studies (Item 5.A) adds a new graduation requirement: students must complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) or submit an opt-out form. While an opt-out is available, this policy pressures families to share sensitive financial data with the federal government.
Recommended Action Plan
INFORM & OPT-OUT: Be aware of this new FAFSA graduation requirement under Item 5.A. If you do not want to submit your family’s private financial information to the federal government, ensure you know the process for submitting the ‘official opt-out form.’
💰 Impact: Federal Data Collection
