District to Contract with External Mental Health Provider
The board plans to approve a contract with the ‘Jewish Child Care Association of New York (Compass Project)’ to provide services to students. This brings a third-party mental health organization into schools, raising questions about parental consent, data privacy, and the types of therapy or interventions offered.
Recommended Action Plan
Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding Item K.8, I demand the full contract with the Jewish Child Care Association be made public before the vote. What specific services will be provided, who is eligible, and what are the parental notification and consent procedures?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed

Psychologist Reassigned for Social-Emotional Programming
The district is reassigning a school psychologist specifically to support the ‘counseling, mental health, and social-emotional needs’ of elementary students. This expands the school’s role in your child’s emotional development, often using SEL frameworks that can operate outside of direct parental oversight.
Recommended Action Plan
Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding Item I.2, what specific social-emotional programs will this psychologist be implementing? I demand to know the curriculum and be provided with a clear opt-out process for any non-academic counseling or emotional screening.’

Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The board is set to approve a $3,000 contract with the National Scholastic Chess Foundation. The agenda references an attachment with the contract details, but the text was not available for review.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘National Scholastic Chess contract 26-27.pdf’ attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm the terms are purely for chess instruction and involve no other services.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $3,000.00
