Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Rankin CSD 98. We found 4 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 10) |
|
Secret Vote to Install Social Emotional Learning Policy
The board is voting on a massive batch of policy updates (Item 7.IV), including Policy 6:65, ‘Student Social and Emotional Development.’ This is the formal adoption of a Social Emotional Learning (SEL) framework. SEL is often used to introduce controversial concepts about race, gender, and identity under the guise of ‘wellness.’ The district has not provided the text of this new policy, so parents have no idea what is in it. They are voting to approve a secret policy.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a Code Red. The board is voting on Item 7.IV to formally adopt an SEL policy (6:65) without letting the public see it. Sign up for public comment. Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website): ‘Vote NO on the PRESS Issue #121 policy bundle (Item 7.IV). We demand that Policy 6:65 and Policy 6:50 be pulled for a separate public hearing and that the full text be posted for parental review immediately.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: The cost of replacing academics with psychological programming.

Approving Federal Grants Without Showing Parents the Strings
The board is voting to approve the ‘District Consolidated Plan’ (Item 7.II) to get state and federal Title grant money. However, the actual plan is missing from the agenda. The district’s own notes admit the full plan is not ‘easily accessible.’ This means parents have no way to know what ideological mandates (like DEI requirements) or data-sharing agreements are attached to this money before the board votes.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website): ‘I demand Item 7.II, the District Consolidated Plan, be tabled until the full text of the plan is made public for parental review. We will not approve a blank check for programs with hidden ideological strings attached.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Unknown amount of Title Grant funding with undisclosed mandates.

Adopting National Geographic ‘Global’ Curriculum
The board is voting to purchase a 6th-grade ‘World Cultures and Geography’ textbook from National Geographic (Item 7.III). While it sounds like a standard textbook, National Geographic is known for promoting ‘Global Citizenship’ and other progressive viewpoints that can replace traditional civics and history with social and environmental activism. Parents need to review this material to ensure it’s focused on geography, not ideology.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND REVIEW: Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding Item 7.III, I request a 30-day public review period for the National Geographic “World Cultures and Geography” textbook before any vote. Parents have a right to inspect curriculum for ideological content before it enters the classroom.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $1,100 – $1,300

| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
District Newsletter Confirms Student Surveillance
In the district’s community newsletter (Item 9.I), the administration celebrates its state rating. The metrics used to get this rating include ‘Chronic Absenteeism’ tracking and ‘Climate Surveys.’ This is confirmation that the district is already monitoring your family’s attendance as a potential reason for intervention and is using subjective ‘climate surveys’ to collect data on your child’s feelings, beliefs, and home life.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: This confirms the district uses climate surveys. Contact the district office and demand to see the parental opt-out form for all non-academic surveys, including the School Climate Survey. Ask who owns the data collected from your child.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your family’s privacy.
