Summary — 3/14/2026:
Our monitoring of Spencerville Local, Local School District has identified 4 agenda items that warrant community action.
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 9
|
|
Secret Policy Updates from National Vendor
The Board is voting to approve a batch of policy updates (Vol 44, No 2) from NEOLA, a national policy firm. The actual text of these changes has not been made public in the agenda. This allows radical policies on student discipline, gender identity, or parental rights to be passed without any public scrutiny.
Recommended Action
Email Superintendent Brian Woods at woodsb@svbearcats.org: 'I demand Item F.12, the NEOLA Policy Updates, be tabled until the full text of every proposed change is posted publicly for a 30-day review period. Do not vote on secret policies.'
|
💰 Cost: Undefined Liability (Passing unknown policies)

Superintendent's 'Retire-Rehire' Double-Dipping Scheme
The Superintendent and six other employees are 'retiring' with the explicit 'intent to rehire.' This is a legal loophole allowing them to collect both a full salary and pension benefits. This scheme costs taxpayers more, prevents a search for new leadership, and rewards insiders at public expense.
Recommended Action
Call Board President Nate Pohlman at (419) 647-4111: 'I oppose the "retire-rehire" plan for the Superintendent and other staff in Item F.5. The district must conduct a real search for new leadership, not approve a costly double-dipping scheme.'
|
💰 Cost: Hidden Future Costs (Increased salary + pension burden)
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 5
|
|
Tracking Students for 'Chronic Absenteeism'
|
📅 Reported on March 17, 2026
|
Principals are now reporting 'Chronic Absenteeism' statistics to the board, with rates as high as 24% in 9th grade. This isn't just about truancy; it's a specific data-tracking system that can trigger state-level interventions, potentially leading to home visits and family surveillance under the guise of 'support.'
Recommended Action
Email Superintendent Brian Woods at woodsb@svbearcats.org: 'Regarding the "Chronic Absenteeism" data, what specific intervention program is this data for, and does it involve home visits or sharing family data with outside agencies? Parents must be notified.'
|
💰 Cost: Data Surveillance
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 4
|
|
Undisclosed Cost for Google Chromebooks
The Board plans to approve a purchase of Chromebooks and 'Google Plus for Education' from Xerox. The cost and terms are hidden in a quotation not included in the public agenda. This prevents parents from knowing how much is being spent and what data Google will be collecting on their children.
Recommended Action
Email Treasurer Jennifer Sudhoff at jennifer.sudhoff@escneo.org: 'Regarding Item F.10, what is the total cost of the Xerox Chromebook purchase? Please publicly post the full quotation and the data privacy agreement with Google before any vote is taken.'
