District Accepts ‘Social Emotional Learning’ Grant
Under Consent Item 5.g, the board is accepting a $500 grant from the ‘Social Emotional Learning Alliance for California’ (SEL4CA). This money will be used to buy SEL-focused books and materials for interns to use with students, introducing this ideology directly into therapeutic services.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the County Board of Education (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘I demand Consent Item 5.g be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Parents deserve to know why the district is partnering with the Social Emotional Learning Alliance for California and what is in these ‘therapeutic materials’.’
π° Impact: $500 (Ideological Strings Attached)

Charter School Renewal Using i-Ready EdTech
The renewal petition for Dimensions Collaborative School (Item 7) confirms the use of i-Ready, a student-facing educational software.

Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND EVIDENCE: Contact the County Board of Education (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Before renewing the charter for Dimensions Collaborative School (Item 7), please publish the independent, third-party evidence that i-Ready produces meaningful academic gains and disclose the total daily screen time this software adds for a typical student.’

School Partners with University on Student Activism Project
The district is accepting $23,760 from San Diego State University for a research project on ‘smokefree outdoor policies’ (Item 5.f). A student group called the ‘Activists for a Better Community Youth Council’ will be used to collect data and ‘educate their peers,’ turning students into political activists instead of focusing on core academics.
Recommended Action Plan
PULL THE ITEM: Contact the County Board of Education (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Regarding Item 5.f, using students for political research and peer-to-peer lobbying is not education. I request this item be pulled from the Consent Agenda for public discussion on how this program supports core academics.’
π° Impact: $23,760 (Student Activism)

District Forms ‘Community Cabinet’ to Shape Policy
The district is accepting $12,000 to create a ‘Community Cabinet’ made up of individuals with ‘lived experience’ to shape regional policy (Item 5.e). This creates a formal channel for activists to influence the school system, bypassing the normal process of parental input and board oversight.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the County Board of Education (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Regarding Item 5.e, who selects the members of this ‘Community Cabinet’? What are the criteria for ‘lived experience’? This item must be pulled from the Consent Agenda to discuss how this group will be held accountable to all parents.’
π° Impact: $12,000 (Activist Pipeline)

School Presentation Highlights Ideological Programs
A presentation on the Innovations Academy of Empowerment (Item 2.c) confirms the school uses ‘Social and Emotional Learning,’ ‘Restorative Practices,’ and ‘Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS).’ Staff are also receiving professional development in ‘Ethnic Studies.’
Recommended Action Plan

Resolution Injects Identity Politics into Homelessness
The board is voting on a resolution for ‘Homeless Youth Awareness Month’ (Item 5.n). The resolution’s text specifically states that a ‘disproportionate number’ of homeless youth are ‘LGBTQIA+,’ injecting divisive identity politics into an issue that should be about helping all children in need.
Recommended Action Plan
Contact the County Board of Education (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Regarding Resolution 5.n, please amend the text to focus on helping all homeless children equally, without dividing them by ideological identity groups. A child’s need is what matters, not their identity category.’
π° Impact: Divisive Identity Politics
