Board to be Trained on “Reimagining” Advanced Courses for “Equity”
Board members will attend a session titled “Equity in Practice: Reimagining Advanced Course Pathways.” This is a major red flag for future efforts to dismantle gifted, honors, or other advanced academic programs under the guise of “equity,” which could harm high-achieving students by removing merit-based opportunities.
Recommended Action Plan
DEFEND ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE: Email the board via brenda.dobry@asd16.org: ‘Regarding the WSSDA session 6003 on ‘Reimagining Advanced Course Pathways,’ we demand you protect all advanced academic programs in our district. ‘Equity’ should mean raising standards for all, not eliminating opportunities for high-achievers.’
💰 Impact: Threat to Advanced Academics

Board Attending Taxpayer-Funded “Educational Equity” Training
The school board is using taxpayer funds to attend the WSSDA conference, which features multiple, multi-hour training sessions on “Educational Equity,” “Inclusion,” and “Cultural Proficiency.” This is how ideological frameworks are introduced to board members, shaping future district policy away from academics and towards social engineering.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK THE BOARD: Email the board via brenda.dobry@asd16.org: ‘Regarding your attendance at the WSSDA conference, will you commit to rejecting any ‘Educational Equity’ or ‘Cultural Proficiency’ frameworks that promote unequal treatment of students or lower academic standards? Parents expect you to represent our community’s values, not the agendas of outside associations.’
💰 Impact: Taxpayer-Funded Indoctrination

Board Training on State Mandates vs. Community Values
The board will attend a session on navigating conflicts between state law and community values (Session 6001). This is a critical moment for parents to remind the board that their first duty is to represent the local community that elected them, not unelected state bureaucrats.
Recommended Action Plan
SET THE EXPECTATION: Email the board via brenda.dobry@asd16.org: ‘We see you’re attending session 6001 on navigating conflicts between state law and community values. We elected you to represent our community. We expect you to use this training to find every legal means to defend our parental rights and local control against state overreach.’
💰 Impact: Whose side are they on?

Conference Trains Board to Use “Student Voice” to Drive Policy
The WSSDA conference agenda includes at least five sessions on using “student voice” and “student advocacy” to shape board policy. This strategy often elevates the voices of a few student activists to create the appearance of student-led demand for controversial policies, bypassing parental authority.
Recommended Action Plan
PUT THE BOARD ON NOTICE: Email the board via brenda.dobry@asd16.org: ‘While student input is valuable, parents are the primary stakeholders in their children’s education. We expect the board to prioritize parental input and rights, not use ‘student voice’ initiatives to circumvent the family and community.’
💰 Impact: Bypassing Parental Authority
