| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |

Rewriting the Rules to Limit Parent Input
Under the vague heading ‘Board Operating Procedures,’ the board is holding a planning session to decide how meetings will be run for the entire year. This is often where they quietly change the rules to reduce public comment time, restrict what parents can talk about, or make it harder for the public to hold them accountable. They are setting the rules of engagement, and parents need to ensure their voices won’t be silenced.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ACCESS: Email the Board of Trustees before the meeting. ‘Regarding your discussion on Operating Procedures, I insist that you protect and expand, not restrict, the public’s right to speak at meetings. Do not reduce public comment time or create new barriers for parental engagement.’ (Moms: Verify current board member emails on the district website.)
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Loss of parental oversight and public accountability.

Setting the Stage for Ideological Agendas
The board is meeting to set its ‘Vision, Mission, Core Beliefs, and Goals.’ This is a critical first step where ideological buzzwords like ‘equity,’ ‘social-emotional learning,’ and ‘global citizenship’ are often embedded into the district’s foundational documents. Once these concepts are in the mission statement, they are used all year to justify radical curriculum, teacher training, and policies that undermine parental authority.
Recommended Action Plan
SET THE TONE: Email the Board of Trustees before the retreat. ‘As you discuss the district’s vision and goals, I urge you to prioritize academic excellence and fundamental skills over social or political agendas. Keep divisive concepts out of our district’s mission statement.’ (Moms: Verify current board member emails on the district website.)
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Future spending on ideological consultants and curriculum.
