Heads up! We have scanned the upcoming agenda for Colorado School for the Deaf and Blind. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7)
Making It Harder for Parents to Get Information
πŸ“… October 21, 2026
The board is voting on a new policy to increase the hourly fee for public records requests by over 23% (to $41.37/hour) and add new procedural hurdles for parents who are denied information. This makes it more expensive and difficult for parents to use their right to know what’s happening in the school.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Vote NO on Consent Items 3.3 and 3.4. Increasing fees and adding hurdles to public records requests discourages parental oversight and reduces transparency. Keep public information accessible to the public.’

πŸ’° Impact: More Expensive Transparency
NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6)
New ‘MacBook Pilot Program’ Introduces More Screens
πŸ“… October 21, 2026
The Superintendent’s report reveals a new ‘MacBook Pilot Program’ has been initiated without prior board discussion. The district has not provided any evidence that this program will improve academic outcomes or detailed how much additional daily screen time students will have.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND EVIDENCE: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Regarding the MacBook Pilot Program in the Superintendent’s report, what is the educational goal? Before any expansion, please provide parents with the independent, non-vendor-funded evidence showing this technology improves academic achievement, and a report on how much daily screen time it will add for students.’

πŸ’° Impact: More Screen Time
MONITOR (LEVEL 5)
‘Social-Emotional’ Plan Embedded in Academics
πŸ“… October 21, 2026
The minutes for the October 7th meeting, up for approval under Consent Item 3.2, show the board has already approved a ‘Unified Improvement Plan’ that prioritizes ‘Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS)’ and ‘social-emotional and behavioral supports.’ These programs often serve as delivery systems for SEL and can lead to student interventions and data collection without full parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan

MONITOR & QUESTION: The district’s new improvement plan (seen in the minutes for Item 3.2) is now official policy. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘What specific curriculum and screening tools will be used for the social-emotional and MTSS components of the Unified Improvement Plan? Parents must have the right to review all materials and opt their children out of any non-academic screening or instruction.’
