District Rolls Out Pervasive Student Surveillance System
The district is deploying a massive new security system that includes ‘Smart Sensors’ in areas like restrooms to detect ‘aggressions’ and ‘GoGuardian’ software to monitor all student activity on school devices, including searches, emails, and documents. This creates a constant digital and physical surveillance environment, treating every child like a suspect without parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a massive invasion of student privacy. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Vote NO on the security measures in Item 10.1. We do not consent to our children being subjected to constant physical and digital surveillance. This is a school, not a prison.’
💰 Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

District Hiding “Second Step” SEL Purchase in Fine Print
Buried deep in the purchase order list are multiple payments totaling $3,932 to ‘Committee for Children,’ the creator of the controversial ‘Second Step’ Social Emotional Learning (SEL) program. The district is attempting to sneak this ideological curriculum into Early Childhood classrooms by labeling it as generic ‘instructional materials.’
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Pull the Purchase Orders for “Committee for Children” (P2700646, P2700649, etc.) from Consent Agenda Item 12.10. Parents deserve a public discussion before you spend tax dollars on SEL curriculum.’
💰 Impact: $3,932

Board to Approve $512,000 for Vague Student ‘Empowerment’ and ‘Readiness’ Consultants
The board is set to approve two massive contracts under Item 12.11: $135,000 for ‘Scholar System LLC’ to provide a ‘student empowerment program’ and $377,000 for ‘Tomorrow’s Talent, LLC’ for ‘Workforce Readiness’ and ‘civic and personal success’ training. These are huge sums for programs with vague, euphemistic descriptions that often serve as cover for ideological SEL or DEI content.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Pull Items 1 and 7 from the Contract Listings (Agenda Item 12.11) for a separate vote. Before you approve over half a million dollars, parents demand to see the full curriculum from Scholar System LLC and Tomorrow’s Talent, LLC.’
💰 Impact: $512,000

District to Spend up to $378,000 on Outside Business Consultants
The board is approving two large contracts for outside financial management: up to $228,000 for an ‘Interim Chief Business Officer’ and up to $150,000 for ‘consulting services’ from another firm. This raises serious questions about the district’s financial stability and why nearly $400,000 is being spent on temporary consultants instead of permanent, accountable staff.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ANSWERS: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding Items 11 and 12 in the Contract Listings (Agenda Item 12.11), why is the district spending up to $378,000 on outside business consultants? Parents deserve an explanation for this massive expenditure and the state of the district’s finances.’
💰 Impact: $378,000

Tax Dollars Funding ‘Ethnic Studies Curriculum’ Development
Hidden in the Certificated Personnel attachment is a list of teachers receiving extra pay to develop an ‘Ethnic Studies Curriculum.’ This is being funded by an ‘Ethnic Studies Grant,’ which often comes with ideological strings attached, pushing divisive concepts into the classroom.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the extra hourly assignments in Consent Item 12.2, parents have a right to review the “Ethnic Studies Curriculum” being developed with our tax dollars. Release all grant documents and curriculum drafts for public review.’
💰 Impact: Divisive Classroom Politics

District Approving $18,200 for New PreK-6 EdTech Platform
The district plans to spend $18,200 on ‘Seesaw Learning,’ a digital lesson and library platform for students in PreK through 6th grade. The Board has not provided any independent evidence that this product improves academic outcomes or detailed how much daily screen time it will add for our youngest learners.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND EVIDENCE: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding PO P2700503 in Item 12.10, what independent, non-vendor-funded evidence shows Seesaw improves academic results? Please publish this evidence and the expected daily screen time per student before voting.’
💰 Impact: $18,200
