We reviewed the upcoming agenda for Palisades SD and identified 1 items with potential legal exposure ahead of the vote.
HIGH VIABILITY (LEVEL 9)
Contract for Panorama Education Community Survey
📅 October 19, 2026
The Fiscal Oversight Committee is considering a $9,210 contract with Panorama Education to conduct ‘climate surveys’ of students, families, and staff, with a recommendation for full board approval on October 21. The contract’s terms state the district provides consent on behalf of parents for the collection of student data, which may violate the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA) by circumventing direct parental consent requirements.
Intake Action

PRE-VOTE ACTION: Item 4 recommends a contract with Panorama Education. Send a pre-adoption legal notice to the Board before the October 21 full board vote, citing PPRA concerns with contract term 1.3, which purports to grant parental consent for student data collection. Preserve the agenda packet and attached service order.
