District Hires “Equity” Consultants for Family Engagement Training
As part of its ‘Family and Community Engagement’ update (Item III), the district announced a professional learning series featuring outside consultants. At least two speakers, Ari Gerzon-Kessler (Same Team Consulting) and Dr. Michael Andrews (Coaction Collective), specialize in ‘equitable’ family engagement and ‘systems redesign,’ which are often used to push ideological agendas on parents and staff under the guise of partnership.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board of Education (see the Official Agenda link for contact details) regarding the FACE Committee update (Item III). ‘What is the total cost, including speaker fees and materials, for the 2026-27 FACE Professional Learning Series? Parents deserve to know if their tax dollars are funding consultants who promote ‘equity’ and ‘systems redesign’ instead of academic partnership.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Speaker Fees

District Expanding “Restorative Practices” to Replace Discipline
The minutes from the October 13th Community Engagement Committee meeting, up for approval under Item II, confirm the district is piloting “restorative practices” at eight schools. Board members expressed support for expanding these programs, which often replace consequences for misbehavior with therapeutic circles and a focus on ‘repairing harm’ rather than accountability.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK FIRST: Contact the Board of Education (see the Official Agenda link for contact details). ‘Regarding the approval of the October 13 minutes (Item II), what are the specific, measurable criteria for success for the restorative practices pilot? Will the Board publish data on disciplinary incidents at the pilot schools, compared to control schools, before voting to expand this program district-wide?’
💰 Impact: Weakened School Discipline
