| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |

District Plan Mandates “Social Emotional Learning” Lessons
The District Comprehensive Improvement Plan explicitly states a goal to “incorporate Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) via weekly push-in lessons.” This plan formalizes the replacement of academic time with SEL programming and measures success by whether students identify “trusted adults” at school.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website): ‘I demand to see the full curriculum for the SEL push-in lessons mentioned in the DCIP (Item L.8). Parents have a right to review all materials before they are taught to our children.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Lost Academic Time

“Sanctuary School” Policy Limits Cooperation with Federal Immigration Authorities
The board is adopting Policy 7134, which directs school staff to refuse access and information to federal immigration authorities unless they produce a specific type of judicial warrant. This policy establishes procedures for handling student custody if a parent is detained, positioning the school as an intermediary without direct parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This policy directs the school to make decisions about your child’s custody and obstruct federal law enforcement without your consent. Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website): ‘Parents, not the school district, are the ultimate authority for their children. Vote NO on Policy 7134.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Limits Parental Authority

New Safety Plan Implements Student “Threat Assessment” Surveillance
The new District-Wide Safety Plan formalizes a “Threat Assessment” model to identify and monitor students. These systems can be used to profile students for non-violent behaviors or beliefs, creating a permanent record and bypassing parental involvement in the name of safety.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the Threat Assessment model in the new Safety Plan (Item K.4), what are the specific criteria for placing a child under review, and what is the parental notification and consent process? We will not allow our children to be monitored without our knowledge.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

$13.3M BOCES Contract Funds “Mental Health” Services
The district is approving a $13.3 million contract with Nassau BOCES. Buried inside are line items for a “Mental Health Consortium” and $74,868 for “Mental Health School Resources,” which can open the door to school-based counseling and psychological services without full parental transparency or consent.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Education (contact info on district website): ‘I demand that Item J.3, the BOCES contract, be pulled for a separate vote. The Board must publicly explain the ‘Mental Health School Resources’ and ‘Mental Health Consortium’ before approving this $13.3M expense.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $13.3M (Federal Strings Attached)
