District Weakens Parent Voice on Controversial Books
Under Action Item 11.C, the board is revising BP 1312.2, the policy for complaining about instructional materials. The new language explicitly states that materials cannot be removed just for containing ‘inclusive and/or diverse perspectives,’ a tactic used to protect ideological content from parental challenges. The board has also bundled this with revisions to ‘Parent Rights and Responsibilities’ (BP 5020) and ‘Student and Family Privacy Rights’ (BP 5022), but has not provided the text for those critical policies.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a direct attack on your right to protect your kids from inappropriate materials. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Vote NO on Action Item 11.C. The language in BP 1312.2 is designed to silence parents, and hiding the text of BP 5020 and BP 5022 is unacceptable. We demand you unbundle these items and provide full transparency.’
💰 Impact: Your Right to Challenge Materials

Vague ‘Nondiscrimination’ Policy Hides Details
The board is voting on a new ‘Nondiscrimination’ policy, BP 0410. These policies are often used at the state level to insert radical gender ideology and concepts of ‘systemic’ discrimination into every aspect of the district, but the actual text has not been provided with the agenda.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘I demand the full text of Board Policy 0410 be made public and that the vote on Action Item 11.B be postponed until parents have had at least two weeks to review the language. We will not accept policies that undermine parental rights under the guise of nondiscrimination.’
💰 Impact: Parental Rights

District to Issue $10 Million in Bonds with Vague Purpose
The board is authorizing the issuance of $10 million in general obligation bonds from ‘Measure LR’. The agenda states the funds will be used to ‘finance projects approved by Measure LR’ but provides no specific list of what those projects are, leaving the door open for spending on non-academic or ideological projects.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Before voting on Action Item 11.M, please provide the public with a specific, itemized list of the capital projects that will be funded by the $10 million from Measure LR, Series A. Taxpayers deserve to know exactly how this money will be spent.’
💰 Impact: $10,000,000

Opportunity to Join Bond Oversight Committee
The district is establishing a required Independent Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee for Measures LL, LR, and LS. This committee is responsible for ensuring bond money is spent as promised to voters and not on other projects. This is a critical opportunity for parents to gain oversight of tens of millions in taxpayer dollars.
Recommended Action Plan
GET ON THE COMMITTEE: This is our chance for real oversight. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) to find out how to apply for the Independent Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee mentioned in Action Item 11.N. We need sharp, fiscally conservative parents in these seats to watch every dollar.
💰 Impact: Lack of Parent Oversight

| ALERT (LEVEL 3) |
|
Personnel Report Hidden in Consent Agenda
The district has bundled the ‘Personnel Report 26/27-05’ into the consent agenda for a single vote without discussion. The report itself is not included, hiding details of new hires, transfers, or terminations from public view. This can be used to obscure the hiring of administrators for ideological roles.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for Consent Agenda Item 10.A in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm it does not contain new administrative hires for ideological roles like DEI or SEL coordinators.
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Hires
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 3) |
|
Undisclosed Donations Accepted by District
The board is voting to accept donations under Consent Agenda item 10.D, but the document listing the donors and the nature of the donations has not been made public. This prevents parents from knowing if outside groups with political agendas are funding school activities.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for Consent Agenda Item 10.D in the Official Agenda (linked above) to identify the donors and confirm no ideological strings are attached to these funds.
💰 Impact: Potential Ideological Strings
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 2) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The board is reviewing the ‘Williams Quarterly Complaint Report’ under item 8.C. This report details complaints regarding the sufficiency of textbooks and instructional materials. The actual report was not attached to the public agenda, preventing parental review before the meeting.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file attached to Item 8.C in the Official Agenda (linked above) to review the nature and volume of parent and student complaints.
💰 Impact: Lack of Transparency

District Invests in Music Program
The board is approving a $14,276.60 purchase of new musical instruments for the Lake Center Middle School band program. This is a positive investment in core enrichment programs for students, funded by the Arts and Music in Schools Act (Prop 28).
How to Lock It In
AMPLIFY THE WIN: Show up or email the Board to thank them for approving Action Item 11.F and investing in music education. Publicly supporting a focus on core enrichment encourages more of it and builds goodwill for future battles.
