Board Hiding Controversial Policies on Consent Agenda
The Board is bundling a new ‘Family Code of Conduct’ (Policy 5781) and a revision to the ‘Protections of Individual Beliefs’ policy (Policy 2265) into a single consent agenda vote under Item 14.D. This tactic is often used to pass potentially restrictive policies—like those that could be used to silence parents—without public discussion. The actual text of these policies has not been provided in the agenda.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email Superintendent Christopher Papouras at cpapouras@euclidschools.org and call the Board at (216) 797-2915: ‘I demand that Items 14.A, 14.B, and 14.C be pulled from the Consent Agenda (Item 14.D) for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Parents deserve to see the text and hear the Board debate these policies publicly before you vote.’
💰 Impact: Reduced Parental Oversight

District Hires ‘Wraparound Experts’ for Student Services
The board plans to approve a $14,522.62 contract with ‘Wraparound Experts, LLC’ to provide Title I services. ‘Wraparound’ services often include mental health, behavioral, and social-emotional interventions that can occur at school without parental knowledge or consent, undermining parental authority.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: This contract is part of the Consent Agenda for Title Services (Item 10.E). Email Superintendent Christopher Papouras at cpapouras@euclidschools.org: ‘Regarding Item 10.C, what specific services will Wraparound Experts, LLC provide? Please publish the full contract for public review before the vote.’
💰 Impact: $14,522.62

Tax Dollars Funding ‘Building Climate’ Committee
Buried in the personnel report (Item 8.A) is a stipend for a ‘Building Climate Committee.’ This is an example of how social-emotional jargon like ‘school climate’ enters the budget, paying staff for non-academic roles that can shift focus away from core subjects.
Recommended Action Plan
Monitor: This is a small amount, but it’s a foothold for a larger agenda. Track this committee’s activities and future budget requests.
💰 Impact: $771

AMPLIFY THIS WIN: Email Superintendent Christopher Papouras at cpapouras@euclidschools.org and the Board to thank them for approving Item 12.F. ‘Thank you for partnering with community volunteers to improve student literacy. This focus on core academic skills is exactly what our children need.’
✅ Why It Matters: Focus on Academics
