NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6)
Gifted Teacher Resigns, Program’s Future at Risk
📅 November 10, 2026
The Board is set to approve a resignation agreement for the gifted teacher at W.C. Petty Elementary. This sudden departure creates a critical vacancy in a key academic program, raising questions about the district’s plan to ensure continuity for gifted students.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND A PLAN: Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website) before the vote on Item 10.M: ‘What is the district’s plan to immediately recruit and hire a qualified replacement for the W.C. Petty gifted teacher? Parents need assurance that this program will be fully staffed and supported without interruption.’

💰 Impact: Continuity of Gifted Program
MONITOR (LEVEL 5)
District Proposes 4.99% Tax Levy, Dodging Public Hearing
📅 December 15, 2026
The district is proposing a $37.1 million tax levy, a 4.99% increase over last year. This amount is intentionally set just below the 5% threshold that would legally require the district to hold a special ‘Truth-in-Taxation’ public hearing, limiting a key opportunity for public scrutiny before the vote.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND A HEARING: The final vote is December 15th. Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website) regarding Item 6.C: ‘A 4.99% tax increase is significant. We request the Board hold a voluntary Truth-in-Taxation hearing to explain this levy to the community, even if it is not legally required.’

💰 Impact: $37,156,000 Levy

Major Win (LEVEL 9)
WIN: District Adopts Policies Strengthening Parental Opt-Out Rights
📅 November 10, 2026
The Board is adopting policy updates (Press 122) that add new legal precedents supporting a parent’s right to opt their child out of curriculum that undermines their religious beliefs. The official commentary for these policies specifically cites a precedent related to opting out of LGBTQ-inclusive storybooks, giving parents a powerful new tool to protect their children.
How to Lock It In

SECURE THIS WIN: Show up to thank the Board for adopting the Press 122 policy updates in Item 10.N. Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website): ‘Thank you for strengthening parental rights by adopting the Press 122 policy updates. This gives parents a clear basis to opt our children out of instruction that violates our beliefs, and we appreciate you standing for families.’

✅ Why It Matters: Protecting Family Values
