District Pays $15,792 for SEL Program
The district is paying 7 Mindsets Academy LLC, a known Social Emotional Learning (SEL) vendor, for access to their ‘BASE Platform.’ This purchase, found in the accounts payable report, brings SEL programming into the classroom, potentially replacing academic instruction time.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: This SEL vendor payment is listed in the Accounts Payable Vouchers under the Consent Agenda (Item 6.3). Email the Governing Board (contact info on the district website): ‘I demand to know which campus is using the 7 Mindsets Academy program, what it teaches, and how parents can review the full curriculum and opt their children out before you approve this payment.’
💰 Impact: $15,792.00

District to Replace Honors Pre-Calculus with AP Course
The district plans to replace the existing Honors Pre-Calculus course with a new AP Pre-Calculus course.

Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND DETAILS ON MATH TRACK CHANGES: The Board is voting on Item 7.5 to replace Honors Pre-Calculus. Email the Governing Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Before you vote on the new AP Pre-Calculus course, please publish a side-by-side comparison with the current Honors course. Explain how this change impacts student eligibility, weighted grades, and the pathway to AP Calculus.’

New Novels with Mature Themes Proposed for English Classes
The district is approving a list of new novels for English classrooms, including ‘I Am Malala’ and ‘Educated.’ While the district provided a 60-day public review period, parents should be aware of the potentially mature or ideological themes in these books before they are adopted.
Recommended Action Plan
PARENTS, REVIEW THESE BOOKS: The board is voting on Item 7.4, a new novel list. Before they vote, contact the board (contact info on the district website) and ask if there is a process for parental notification and alternative assignments for books with controversial themes like those in ‘I Am Malala’ and ‘Educated’.
💰 Impact: Ideological Content in English Class
