| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 10) |
|
District to Spend $27,000 on SEL Curriculum
Hidden in the warrant list, the district is paying $27,000 to ‘7 Mindsets,’ a company that sells Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum. This program replaces traditional character education with therapeutic techniques and psychological profiling, often without parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a direct purchase of ideological curriculum hidden on the consent agenda. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘I demand Item 6.2 be pulled from consent for a separate vote. We do not co-parent with the government. Vote NO on the 7 Mindsets expenditure or we will organize to replace you.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $27,000

School Partners with Mental Health ‘Matchmaker’
The district is paying $9,600 to Care Solace, a company that acts as a ‘concierge’ to connect students with outside mental health and social service providers. These services can operate without direct parental involvement, creating a pipeline for student treatment that bypasses parental oversight and consent.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the $9,600 payment to Care Solace in Item 6.2, what is the district’s policy for parental notification and consent before a student is referred to this third-party service? Parents must be the primary decision-makers for their child’s mental health.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

District Approves $87k for Student Data Platform
The district is spending $86,909 on i-Ready, a digital learning platform from Curriculum Associates. These platforms collect massive amounts of student data and often contain embedded Social Emotional Learning (SEL) content that is not subject to parental curriculum review.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the i-Ready purchase in Item 6.2, who owns the student data collected by this platform? Please provide the specific parental opt-out form for both the data collection and the SEL components of this program before this is voted on.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $86,909

Board Proposes Ceding Power to Superintendent
The proposed revision to Bylaw 9310 removes the Board’s explicit authority to review and approve ‘administrative regulations.’ This change allows the Superintendent to create binding rules that implement policy without the direct oversight of elected board members, reducing transparency and accountability to parents.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Do not vote to reduce your own oversight. I urge you to reject the proposed changes to Bylaw 9310 and retain the Board’s authority to review and approve all administrative regulations. The public elected you, not the Superintendent.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Board Oversight

District Hires ‘Learner Centered’ Consultant for $62k
The district is paying $62,370 to ‘Learner Centered Collaborative’ for consulting on a ‘District Scorecard.’ ‘Learner-centered’ is often a euphemism for ideological programs that de-emphasize core academics in favor of subjective, emotional, and social metrics.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK QUESTIONS: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘What specific metrics will be included in the “District Scorecard” developed by Learner Centered Collaborative under Item 6.1? Parents want a focus on academic achievement, not social engineering.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $62,370

New Agreement Allows Video Recording in Classrooms
The proposed agreement with Western Governors University (WGU) for student teachers explicitly allows them to video record classroom activities for their university assessments. Parents have a right to know if and when their children are being recorded at school by non-district personnel.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND NOTIFICATION: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the WGU agreement in Item 6.11, what is the policy for notifying parents and obtaining their consent before their child is video recorded by a student teacher? We demand an opt-in policy for all classroom recordings.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Student Privacy

Vague Title — Manual Review Required
Item 6.7 is for the ‘Arts and Music in Schools (Proposition 28) Annual Report 2025-2026.’ The attached file could not be read by our system, so the contents are unverified.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘2025-26 Prop28 Annual Report.pdf’ attached to Item 6.7 in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm how these funds are being spent and ensure they are not being diverted to other programs.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed
