Health Vendor Contract Includes ‘Human Growth & Development’ Program
The district is increasing its contract with health services vendor PSI to $146,990 under Consent Item 7.B. Buried in the vendor’s service list is a ‘Human Growth & Development Program,’ which is a common euphemism for controversial sex education curriculum delivered by outsiders without parental review.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask for Superintendent Keith Ahearn: ‘Regarding Item 7.B, I demand the full curriculum for PSI’s ‘Human Growth & Development Program’ be made public for parental review before any vote. We will not approve a blank check for outside vendors to teach our children sensitive topics.’
π° Impact: $146,990

District Funds ‘Sources of Strength’ SEL Program
Hidden in a list of club assignments under Consent Item 8.F is funding for ‘Sources of Strength,’ a national Social Emotional Learning (SEL) program. These programs often involve student surveys on sensitive mental health topics and peer-to-peer counseling, which can occur without parental knowledge or consent.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND VETTING: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask for Board President Joslyn Dalton: ‘Item 8.F funds the ‘Sources of Strength’ program. Before this is approved, the board must present all surveys, curriculum, and training materials to parents for review. We must have an ironclad opt-out policy for any mental health programming.’
π° Impact: Undisclosed Stipend

Vague ‘Student Agreement’ Hidden in Consent Agenda
Under Consent Item 7.A, the board is voting on a redacted legal ‘Agreement, Release and Waiver’ concerning a student, but the document itself was not provided in the agenda packet. Parents have no way of knowing what rights are being signed away or what precedent is being set for their own children.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘Fairview Pk Sch 9-28-29 Contract (1)_Redacted.pdf’ attached to Item 7.A in the Official Agenda (linked above) to see what this agreement contains. DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office and ask for Superintendent Keith Ahearn: ‘I demand Consent Item 7.A be pulled for a separate discussion. The public deserves to know the nature of a ‘Student Agreement, Release, and Waiver’ before the Board votes on it.’
π° Impact: Undisclosed Student Impact

Public Comment Limited to 30 Minutes Total
The board’s public participation policy (0169.1), referenced in Item 4.A, limits the entire public comment period to just 30 minutes, regardless of how many parents sign up. This rule can be used to shut down parent feedback on controversial topics before everyone who has a right to be heard gets a chance to speak.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TO BE HEARD: If you plan to speak, arrive early to sign up. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask to leave a message for Board President Joslyn Dalton: ‘Parents deserve to be heard. I urge you to use your authority to extend the 30-minute public comment period at the October 27 meeting if parents are still waiting to speak.’
π° Impact: Parent Voice Silenced

District Expands Student Data-Collection Program
The board is approving more hours for the ‘iMTSS Coordinator’ under Item 8.B.4. MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Supports) is a framework often used to implement Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and behavioral interventions, creating a data file on students that goes far beyond academics.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK QUESTIONS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask for Superintendent Keith Ahearn: ‘Regarding Item 8.B.4, what specific student data is collected under the iMTSS program, who has access to it, and what is the parental notification and opt-out process for any non-academic screenings or interventions?’
π° Impact: $1,200
