Summary — 6/5/2026:
Our monitoring of Akron City, City School District has identified 4 agenda items that warrant community action.
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 10
|
|
Quarter-Million Dollar 'Restorative Justice' Contract
|
📅 Vote Scheduled Jun 8, 2026
|
The Board is hiding a $250,000 payment to the 'International Institute for Restorative Practices' inside the consent agenda. 'Restorative Practices' is a radical discipline theory that often replaces consequences for bad behavior with therapy sessions, making classrooms less safe for all students.
Recommended Action
Procedural Demand: Email Board President Diana Autry: 'I demand Item 22.7 be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. The public deserves to hear the Board debate this $250,000 contract for 'Restorative Practices,' not hide it in a bundle.' Use the district line at (330) 761-1661.

💰 Cost: $249,999.99 (Federal Strings Attached)

Paying Activists to Survey Your Children
|
📅 Vote Scheduled Jun 8, 2026
|
A $54,000 contract with 'Transcend, Inc.' will be used to survey students, staff, and families. This outside group, which promotes 'equitable learning,' will use your family's private data to develop 'actionable steps' for the district. This is data surveillance disguised as a 'student voice' project.
Recommended Action
Ultimatum: Call Board President Diana Autry at (330) 761-1661: 'If you vote YES on Item 22.23, you are approving an activist group to survey our children for their political agenda. Vote NO, or we will launch a campaign to recruit a challenger for your seat.'
|
💰 Cost: $54,000 (Federal Strings Attached)
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 8
|
|
Tax Dollars for Social-Emotional Learning
|
📅 Vote Scheduled Jun 8, 2026
|
The district is paying 'Youth Success Summit' $20,000 to run summer programs. The contract explicitly states the goal is to 'embed social-emotional learning (SEL) competencies.' SEL is often a trojan horse for teaching controversial concepts about identity, race, and social justice instead of core academics.
Recommended Action
Public Question: Email Superintendent Mary Outley-Kelly at moutley@akron.k12.oh.us: 'Regarding Item 22.26, please provide the full SEL curriculum from Youth Success Summit that will be used. Parents have a right to review these materials before you spend $20,000 of our tax money on them.'
|
💰 Cost: $20,000 (Federal Strings Attached)
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 7
|
|
$100k Grant from National Lobbying Group
|
📅 Vote Scheduled Jun 8, 2026
|
The Board is accepting a $100,000 grant from the Council of Great City Schools, a national political lobbying group. The money is for 'Professional Development' related to 'High-Quality Instructional Materials.' This is vague language that could be used to retrain teachers and purchase new, politically-charged curriculum.
Recommended Action
Procedural Demand: Email Treasurer R. Wayne Bowers at rbowers@akron.k12.oh.us: 'Regarding Item 21.4, I demand the Board disclose the specific 'High-Quality Instructional Materials' and the full scope of the 'Professional Development' before accepting this $100,000 grant. Do not approve a blank check.'

💰 Cost: $100,000 (Strings Attached)
