| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 10) |

District Creates New ‘Social-Emotional Learning’ Bureaucrat
Under agenda item 7.2, the Board is appointing a new ‘Chairperson of Physical Education, Health and Social-Emotional Learning (K-8)’. This is not just a curriculum, it’s a permanent, high-level administrative position dedicated to embedding SEL ideology into every K-8 classroom. This role will oversee the implementation of programs that often prioritize emotional engineering and data collection over core academics.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Education. ‘I demand Item 7.2 be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Parents deserve to know why taxpayer money is being spent on a non-academic SEL administrator instead of on teachers and reading specialists.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: A new, full-time administrative salary dedicated to implementing SEL.

Silencing Parents at Board Meetings
The official agenda for the July 29th ‘Special Meeting’ explicitly states: ‘The Board does not expect to allow public participation.’ This is a blatant attempt to shut parents out of the process and vote on controversial items, like hiring an SEL administrator and secret consultants, without any public accountability or dissent.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: Even if they won’t let you speak, your presence sends a powerful message. Show up to the meeting. Contact the Board of Education immediately: ‘Denying public comment is an unacceptable violation of your duty to the community. We demand you allow public participation at the July 29th meeting.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Loss of parental oversight and public accountability.

Board Voting on Secret Consultant Contracts
Items 11.4, 11.5, and 11.6 show the Board is voting to hire three outside consultants (Andrew Ward, Renee Rose, Laurie Lynn-Claps), but has deliberately failed to attach the contracts to the public agenda. Parents have no way of knowing who these people are, what they will be paid, or what services they will provide. This is a classic tactic to sneak in DEI, SEL, or ‘equity’ trainers without public scrutiny.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board of Education: ‘Do not vote on items 11.4, 11.5, and 11.6. The public has a right to review any and all consultant contracts before they are approved with our tax dollars. Post the full contracts online immediately.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Unknown. Could be tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars for ideological training.

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Mystery Contract Hidden on the Consent Agenda
Item 8.1 is a vote to approve a contract with an entity identified only as ‘WPOB.’ The agenda provides no information on what this acronym stands for or the purpose of the contract, and the attached file is not publicly accessible. Hiding vague items on the ‘consent agenda’ is a common tactic to pass controversial spending without discussion.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Contact the District Office. ‘Regarding Item 8.1 on the July 29th agenda, what is WPOB and what is the purpose of this contract? We demand this item be pulled from the consent agenda for a full, public discussion and vote.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Unknown.

State ‘Prevention’ Grant Opens Door to Student Surveillance
The Board is accepting a $109,846 grant from the state’s Office of Addiction Services (OASAS) for ‘drug and alcohol prevention’ (Item 8.2). While the goal sounds noble, these grants often require the district to implement programs that include mental health screenings, climate surveys, and data collection on students, potentially bypassing parental consent under the guise of ‘prevention.’
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Contact the Board of Education: ‘Regarding the OASAS grant (Item 8.2), what specific programs, surveys, or screenings will be implemented? Will student data be shared with the state? Provide the parental opt-out forms before this grant is accepted.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $109,846 (State Strings Attached)
