| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |

Board Rushes Policy, Bypassing Public Review
The board is voting to ‘Waive 1st Reading and Approve Board Policy: BB9250.’ This procedural shortcut eliminates the standard waiting period for public review and comment, allowing a new policy to be passed without parental input. Parents have a right to know what policies are being considered before they become final.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) and demand they do not waive the first reading for Item X.L, Board Policy BB9250. ‘Policies that affect our children must have a full and transparent public review process. Vote NO on waiving the first reading and allow parents to see this policy before you vote.’
💰 Impact: Reduced Board Oversight

Vendor Agreements Hidden on Consent Agenda
Under Consent Item XI.C.1, the board is set to approve vendor agreements with ‘SoCal Scholars Academy’ in a single bundled vote. Placing vendor contracts on the consent agenda prevents public discussion about who is being hired and what they are being paid to do in our schools.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) and demand that Consent Item XI.C.1 be pulled for a separate discussion and vote. ‘Parents deserve to know who the SoCal Scholars Academy is and what their agreements entail before you approve them with our tax dollars.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed

Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The board will hold a public hearing (VII.A) and vote (X.J) on the renewal petition for Cabrillo Point Academy, a charter school. The petition document, which outlines the school’s curriculum, policies, and operations, was not included in the agenda packet.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for the ‘Cabrillo Point Academy Renewal Petition’ attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm its curriculum and policies before the board votes on Item X.J.
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Charter Policies

Undisclosed ‘School Pathways LLC’ Contract
The board is voting to approve a quote from a vendor called ‘School Pathways LLC’ with no information about the services being purchased or the cost. This could be for curriculum, software, or consulting, but parents are being kept in the dark.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK FIRST: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) regarding Item X.H. ‘Before you approve the quote from School Pathways LLC, please explain what services this vendor provides, how it will be used with students, and what the total cost will be. This information should be public before the vote.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The board will be presented with (VIII.A) and vote to approve (X.K) the ‘Dehesa School District Campus Master Plan 2026.’ This long-range facilities plan could include controversial projects, but the plan itself was not attached to the public agenda.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the ‘Dehesa School District Campus Master Plan 2026’ attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to check for any controversial facility proposals before the board votes on Item X.K.
💰 Impact: Potential Facility Costs
