Summary — 2/18/2026:
Our monitoring of Trotwood-Madison City, City School District has identified 4 agenda items that warrant community action.
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 8
|
|
Secret Hires Hidden in 'Personnel Agenda'
The Board plans to approve a 'Personnel Agenda' (Item 5.C) without public discussion. This is a common tactic to hire ideological staff or approve controversial contracts without scrutiny. The details are buried in an attached PDF, banking on you not reading it.
Recommended Action
INVESTIGATE: Review the file '2_19_26 Human Resources Board Agenda - Sheet1.pdf' attached to Item 5.C in the official agenda. If it contains new administrative roles like 'Equity' or 'SEL' coordinators, immediately call Board President Sonja Cherry at (937) 854-3050 and demand the item be tabled.
|
💰 Cost: Potential new salaried positions or consultant fees.

Secret Votes Planned After Closed-Door Session
|
📅 Meeting on Feb 19, 2026
|
The Board is meeting in secret to discuss personnel (Item 10.A), and has stated 'Action may be taken' afterward. This allows them to make deals behind closed doors and then vote immediately, giving the public no time to react. This is a deliberate move to avoid accountability.
Recommended Action
Call Superintendent Marlon Howard at (937) 854-3050: 'I demand that any action resulting from the Feb 19 Executive Session be tabled until the next public meeting to allow for public review and comment. Do not vote on secret decisions.'
|
💰 Cost: Loss of public oversight and accountability.
|

PRIORITY LEVEL 7

Following the Money in 'Amended Appropriations'
The Board is voting on 'Amended Appropriations' (Item 4.B), a vague term for moving your tax dollars around. Are they cutting funds for academics to pay for new administrative bloat? The details are hidden in the attached resolution file, and they don't want you to look.
Recommended Action
INVESTIGATE: Review the file 'AppropriationResolution...Feb. Board Meeting.pdf' attached to Item 4.B in the official agenda. Find out exactly what is being defunded and what is being funded. If it's suspicious, call Treasurer Jill Adams via the district at (937) 854-3050 for an explanation.
|
💰 Cost: Undefined. Could shift funds from classrooms to bureaucracy.

Ideological Buzzwords Signal Policy Shift
|
📅 Discussion on Feb 19, 2026
|
A discussion item is titled 'Pathway to 100% Student Success' (Item 6.D). While it sounds good, this is often a euphemism for shifting focus from academic achievement to subjective social-emotional metrics and lowering standards. This is an early warning of a future policy change.
Recommended Action
Monitor: Pay close attention to this discussion. If the Board proposes new programs based on 'student success' metrics, be prepared to demand evidence that these programs improve math and reading scores, not just feelings.
|
💰 Cost: Future costs for non-academic programs.
