Summary — 3/9/2026:
Our monitoring of Xenia Community City, City School District has identified 6 agenda items that warrant community action.
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 8
|
|
Board Voting on Your Property Tax Rates
|
📅 Vote Scheduled March 9, 2026
|
Under the bureaucratic title "Resolution Accepting Amounts and Rates," the Board is actually voting to set the property tax rates for the next fiscal year. This is one of the most important financial votes they take, and it's buried under a vague title with no public presentation.
Recommended Action
Public Question: Email Treasurer Thomas Massie at tmassie@xeniaschools.org: 'Regarding Item 7.A, what is the proposed effective tax rate increase for homeowners in this resolution? This must be clearly explained to the public before any vote is taken.'
|
💰 Cost: Potential Property Tax Hike
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 7
|
|
Hiding Past Decisions in a 35MB File
|
📅 Vote Scheduled March 9, 2026
|
The Board wants to approve last month's minutes, but the attachment is a massive 35,000 KB file. They are burying past contracts and decisions in a document too large for a busy parent to review, then passing it without discussion in the Consent Agenda.
Recommended Action
Procedural Demand: Call Board President Mary Grech at (937) 376-2961: 'I demand Item 4.I be pulled from the Consent Agenda. The public deserves a summary of the key decisions and contracts contained in the 35MB attachment before the minutes are approved.'
|
💰 Cost: Undisclosed Past Spending/Policy
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 6
|
|
Superintendent's 'Surprise' Update Slot
|
📅 Meeting on March 9, 2026
|
The agenda includes a vague "March Updates" from the Superintendent with no attached documents. This is a black box where new, unvetted programs or controversial ideas can be introduced to the Board and public without any prior warning or documentation for parents to review.
Recommended Action
Public Question: Email Superintendent Gabriel Lofton at glofton@xeniaschools.org: 'What specific topics will you be covering in your "March Updates" under Item 9.A? The public deserves advance notice of any new initiatives you plan to discuss.'
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 6
|
|
Vague Financial Report Requires Review
|
📅 Vote Scheduled March 9, 2026
|
The Board is voting to approve the monthly financial report. These documents can conceal federal grants that mandate specific curricula or contracts with data-mining firms. The district provides no summary, forcing parents to dig through the raw data themselves.
Recommended Action
INVESTIGATE: Review the file 'Feb26 BOE Financial Report.pdf' attached in the Official Agenda to check for grants from the Dept. of Education or payments to vendors like Panorama, CASEL, or Second Step.
|
💰 Cost: Potential Hidden Contracts
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 5
|
|
Your Public Comment Time is Capped
|
📅 Ongoing Policy, Highlighted March 9, 2026
|
The Board's rules (Policy 0169.1) limit total public comment to just 30 minutes and prevent any real-time questions. This ensures they can listen without having to answer you directly, effectively shutting down meaningful debate before it starts.
Recommended Action
Email Board President Mary Grech and Superintendent Gabriel Lofton: 'Policy 0169.1, which caps public comment at 30 minutes and forbids direct questions, is an insult to parents. We demand a policy that encourages, not silences, public dialogue. When will you revise this policy?'
|
💰 Cost: Suppressed Accountability
|
|
|
PRIORITY LEVEL 4
|
|
Patriotic Resolution or History Lesson Rewrite?
|
📅 Vote Scheduled March 9, 2026
|
The Board is voting on a resolution for America's 250th anniversary. While this sounds good, we must verify the language. These resolutions can be used to subtly introduce revisionist historical narratives or ideological frameworks into the district's official stance.
Recommended Action
INVESTIGATE: Review the file 'A Resolution Celebrating the 250th Anniversary...' attached in the Official Agenda. Check for any language that criticizes or reinterprets the founding principles of the United States.
|
💰 Cost: Ideological Framing
