Summary — 2/18/2026:
Our monitoring of Forest Hills Local, Local School District has identified 3 agenda items that warrant community action.
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 8
|
|
Secret Superintendent Contract Vote
The Board is voting on the Superintendent's new contract (Item 8.1) without publishing the document for public review. This contract dictates salary, bonuses, and performance goals, costing taxpayers millions. Voting without transparency is a major power grab and a breach of public trust.
Recommended Action
Call Board President Sara Jonas at (513) 231-3600: 'I demand the full proposed Superintendent contract be released to the public immediately and the vote on Item 8.1 be postponed until the next meeting to allow for proper review.'
|
💰 Cost: Undefined Liability (Secret Contract)
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 7
|
|
Hiding Consultant Contracts in a Single Vote
|
📅 Meeting on Feb 18, 2026
|
The Board plans to approve over $600,000 in spending with a single 'Consent Agenda' vote (Items 11.1-14.2). Buried in this bundle are contracts for outside 'mental health' and 'behavior coaching' consultants. This tactic is designed to prevent discussion and accountability on controversial spending.
Recommended Action
Call Superintendent Larry Hook at (513) 231-3600: 'I demand Items 13.3 and 13.4 be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. The public deserves to hear the debate on these outside consultants.'
|
💰 Cost: $601,630+ (Bundled Contracts)
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 6
|
|
$51k for Outside 'Mental Health' Consultants
The Board is trying to approve $51,000 for two outside vendors, 'Child Focus' and 'HCESC,' to provide 'mental health' and 'behavior coaching' to students (Items 13.3 & 13.4). This outsources student psychological services to third parties who may not share our community's values and could collect sensitive data.
Recommended Action
INVESTIGATE: Review the contracts attached to Items 13.3 and 13.4 in the official agenda. Then call Superintendent Larry Hook at (513) 231-3600: 'Why are we spending $51,000 on outside consultants instead of using our own staff? Can parents opt-out of these programs?'
|
💰 Cost: $51,000 (Potential Student Data Mining)
