Board Caps Public Comment on Controversial Topics
The board’s policy under item F.3 limits total public comment on any single agenda item to just 20 minutes. This means if more than a handful of parents show up to speak on a hot-button issue, most will be denied their chance to be heard by their elected officials.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND YOUR RIGHT TO BE HEARD: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘The 20-minute total time limit on public comment in Item F.3 is an unacceptable restriction on parental speech. We demand this arbitrary cap be removed to ensure all concerned parents can address the Board.’
💰 Impact: Silencing Parent Voices

Vague ‘CSBA Updates’ Hide Potential Policy Changes
The board is voting to adopt unspecified policy updates from the California School Boards Association (CSBA). Without the text of these updates, parents have no way of knowing if they impact curriculum, student privacy, or parental rights.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The district must post the full text of the ‘August 2026 CSBA Updates’ referenced in Item G.1. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Parents have a right to review policy changes before you vote. Post the full text of the CSBA updates in Item G.1 immediately.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Policy Changes

University ‘Counselors’ May Treat Students Without Parental Consent
The district is approving an agreement to bring in counseling students from CSU Bakersfield to work with our children. These university programs often train counselors in controversial theories, and it’s unclear if these trainees will be allowed to meet with students without explicit, prior parental consent for each session.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND A PARENTAL CONSENT CLAUSE: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Regarding Item J.1, we demand that the agreement with CSU Bakersfield explicitly require prior, written parental consent before any student is seen by a counseling trainee. We do not co-parent with the university.’
💰 Impact: Bypassing Parental Consent

District Expanding Computer Purchases Without Proof of Benefit
The board is approving an amendment to purchase more computer equipment for students under Item I.1. The district has not provided any evidence that current technology use is improving academic outcomes, or disclosed how much additional screen time this will add to a child’s day.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND PROOF, NOT MORE SCREENS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Before voting on Item I.1, please publish the independent evidence showing that your existing technology programs produce academic gains, and state how many daily minutes of screen time this new purchase will add for the average student.’
💰 Impact: More Student Screen Time

Vague University Agreement Lacks All Detail
The board is voting on an unspecified agreement with the University of Massachusetts Global under Item J.2. Parents have no information on the purpose, cost, or scope of this partnership, or how it will affect students and classrooms.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The district must post the full text of the agreement with University of Massachusetts Global referenced in Item J.2. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘We will not approve blank checks. Post the full agreement for public review before any vote.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed University Partnership
