Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for INVER GROVE HEIGHTS SCHOOLS. We found 4 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9)
District Pays Vendor for “Second Step” SEL Program
📅 2026-08-17
The district’s check register, under the consent agenda, shows a payment of $15,675.10 to “Committee for Children.” This is the creator of the controversial “Second Step” Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum, which often replaces core academics with lessons on social engineering and emotional management.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘I demand to know which schools are using the “Second Step” curriculum purchased under Item 6.C. Parents have a right to review all SEL materials and opt their children out of these psychological interventions.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: $15,675.10
🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8)
Board to Vote on Lobbying Priorities for State Legislature
📅 2026-08-17
Under Item 8.C, the Board will vote to approve its legislative wish list for the Minnesota School Boards Association (MSBA) to lobby for in the 2027 session. This uses local school district authority and resources to influence state-level politics, often against parental rights.
Recommended Action Plan

PACK THE ROOM: This is taxpayer-funded lobbying. Sign up for public comment and email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Vote NO on Item 8.C. The Board’s job is to educate our children, not to use our tax dollars to lobby the state legislature.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying
ALERT (LEVEL 4)
District Pays Consultant for “Competency-Based” Education
📅 2026-08-17
The check register shows a $9,787 payment to Marzano Resources. This group is a major proponent of “competency-based education,” an approach that can de-emphasize traditional grades and academic knowledge in favor of subjective skill assessments.
Recommended Action Plan

Monitor: Ask the district for details on the services provided by Marzano Resources. Track how “competency-based” models are being implemented and whether they are reducing academic rigor in the classroom.

💰 Taxpayer Impact: $9,787.00
✅ Wins to Defend
Good moves worth showing up to support so they stick.
Major Win (LEVEL 7)
District Codifies Parental Right to Review Curriculum
📅 2026-08-17
The Board is set for a final vote on Policy 604, “Instructional Curriculum.” Section IV of this policy explicitly affirms the right of a parent or guardian to review instructional materials and arrange for alternative instruction if they object to the content.
How to Lock It In

SECURE THE WIN: Show up to thank the Board for codifying parental rights in Policy 604. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Thank you for affirming parental rights in Policy 604. Please vote YES on Item 8.A to ensure parents remain the primary authority in their children’s education.’

✅ Why It Matters: Strengthened Parental Rights
