District Revising ‘Wellness’ Policy, a Gateway for SEL
The board is conducting a first reading of a revised ‘Wellness’ policy (po8510). Policies with this title are often used as a Trojan horse to introduce Social Emotional Learning (SEL), mental health screenings, or other student services without direct parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: This is a First Reading. Open policy ‘po8510 Wellness – Revised’ in the official agenda (linked above). Check for language about SEL, mental health screenings, climate surveys, or partnerships with outside health providers before the Board votes.

Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open policy ‘po8330 Student Records – Revised’ in the official agenda (linked above). Check for changes to data collection, third-party data sharing, and parental consent requirements before the Board votes.

Major Overhaul of Board Meeting & Transparency Rules
The board is rescinding at least eight separate policies related to how meetings are conducted (Item 7.A, policies 2-10) and replacing them with revised versions. This consolidation could either simplify procedures or reduce opportunities for public oversight and comment.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the revised meeting policies (especially po0164.1) in the official agenda (linked above). Compare the new rules to the old ones to see if public comment time, the ability to call special meetings, or other transparency measures are being restricted.
💰 Impact: Reduced Public Oversight

Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link). ‘Regarding Item 6.C, please publish the full contract listing with vendor names, service descriptions, and costs for public review before the vote. Taxpayers deserve to know where their money is going.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed
