We reviewed the upcoming agenda for Osborn Elementary District (4262) and identified 1 items with potential legal exposure ahead of the vote.
HIGH VIABILITY (LEVEL 10)
Adoption of Policy on Parental Notification for Counseling
📅 November 17, 2026
The Board will vote to adopt revisions to Policy 3-106 and new Procedure 3-106.C, governing parental notification for student counseling services funded by school safety grants. The procedure creates an exception allowing staff to withhold information from parents about ‘significant health, emotional, or mental health concerns’ if staff have ‘reasonable cause to believe’ notification would place the child in danger of abuse or neglect. This subjective standard creates an exception that burdens the fundamental right of parents to be informed about and direct the care of their children.
Intake Action

PRE-VOTE ACTION: Under Item X-B, the Board is suspending its two-reading rule to immediately adopt the policy in Item X-C. Send a pre-adoption legal notice to the Governing Board identifying the constitutional defect in the ‘Exception Protocol’ of proposed Procedure 3-106.C before the November 17 vote. Preserve the agenda packet and proposed policy text now.
