District Seeks Power to Borrow Millions Without a Public Vote
The board is holding a final vote on Policy 6910, which is based on state legislation that ‘expands the authority of school districts to borrow money for construction and facility improvements without a public vote.’ This allows the district to issue ‘non-voted bonds,’ taking on millions in debt while bypassing taxpayer approval and accountability.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a final vote on a major financial power grab. Email Board President Jeff Wolff at ‘ jwolff@fpschools.org‘ and sign up for public comment: ‘Vote NO on Item 11.10, Policy 6910. Taxpayers must retain the right to vote on all school construction debt.’
π° Impact: Taxpayer Debt Without a Vote

New ‘Civility’ Policy Could Be Used to Silence Parents
The board is taking a final vote on Policy 5282, which expands the district’s ‘Civility’ rules to cover parents and community members. These policies are often used as a tool to shut down critical public comment and label passionate parents as ‘uncivil’ to avoid answering tough questions about their kids’ education.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND YOUR RIGHTS: This is a final vote. Email Board President Jeff Wolff at ‘ jwolff@fpschools.org‘ and sign up for public comment: ‘Vote NO on Item 11.6, the revised Policy 5282. Do not weaponize a “civility” policy to silence parental concerns.’
π° Impact: Your Right to Speak

Vague ‘Racial Justice’ Agreement Requires Investigation
The board is voting to approve a ‘LEADER’ (Leaders in Education Advancing Diversity, Equity and Racial Justice) agreement with an outside group. The summary mentions creating an ‘Educators of Color Leadership Community’ and new race-based hiring practices, but the full agreement text is not included in the public agenda packet.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The full agreement for Item 12.5, ‘PSESD Agreement 0102700032.pdf’, is not included in the agenda packet. Email Board President Jeff Wolff at ‘ jwolff@fpschools.org‘: ‘Pull Item 12.5 from the agenda until the full text of this “Racial Justice” agreement is made public for parental review.’
π° Impact: Race-Based Hiring Practices

Undisclosed Changes to Student Placement Policy
The board is introducing a first reading of revisions to Policy 3110, which governs student attendance and placement. The district has not provided the text of the proposed changes, leaving parents in the dark about potential impacts on where and how their children are placed in school.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email Board President Jeff Wolff at ‘ jwolff@fpschools.org‘: ‘Regarding Item 13.1, why has the text for the first reading of Policy 3110 not been made public? The board must not introduce policies without providing the language for parental review.’
π° Impact: Undisclosed Policy Changes
