Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Lenape Regional High School District. We found 8 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 10) |
|
New Attendance Policy Criminalizes Parents
The district is approving a revised attendance policy (R 5200) that gives them the power to refer parents to court for “truancy” after 10 unexcused absences. The policy also allows the school to mandate “behavioral and health needs” assessments and refer students to outside agencies, inserting the school between you and your child’s healthcare. This is a massive government overreach that treats parents like criminals for making decisions about their own children’s attendance.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a critical threat to parental rights. Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘I am a parent, not a potential criminal. Vote NO on Item 6.3, the revisions to Policy and Regulation 5200. We will not co-parent with the government.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Parental Authority

| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |
|
District Adopts Subjective ‘Bias Incident’ Rules
The revised Behavioral Guidelines (R 5600) introduce ‘Bias Incident/Crime’ as a punishable offense, defined as conduct that ‘directly or indirectly causes intimidation.’ This creates a subjective speech code where students can be suspended or face a Superintendent’s Hearing for expressing an opinion that someone else finds offensive. This is a direct threat to free speech and can be used to punish students for holding traditional values.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND CLARITY: Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Regarding Item 6.1, Regulation 5600, who defines a ‘Bias Incident’? Vague speech codes have no place in our schools. Vote NO on these revisions.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Free Speech

District Pays $23,800 for Student Mental Health Referrals
A check register from July 28, 2026 shows a $23,800 payment to Care Solace, Inc. This company acts as a ‘concierge’ to connect students with mental health providers, creating a system where the school, not the parent, manages the child’s mental healthcare referrals. This service can operate without direct parental involvement, undermining your right to direct the care and upbringing of your child.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ANSWERS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Regarding the $23,800 payment to Care Solace, what is the parental consent and notification process before a student is referred to this service? Parents must be the primary decision-makers for their child’s mental health.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $23,800
|
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Application for Federal ESEA Grant with Hidden Strings
Item 12.5 approves the application for the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Grant. These large federal grants often come with serious strings attached, mandating specific ‘equity’ initiatives, SEL programs, or extensive student data collection that parents are never told about. The district has not provided the grant application for public review.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Before approving Item 12.5, the ESEA Grant application must be made public. We will not approve a blank check for federal programs with unknown ideological requirements.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Federal Strings Attached
|
| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
District Approves ‘Student Wellness Day’
Item 13.10 approves a single session day for a ‘Student Wellness Day.’ These events are frequently used to push non-academic, ideological content like Social Emotional Learning (SEL), mindfulness, or sessions on gender and equity under the guise of ‘wellness.’ Parents need to know exactly what their children will be taught during this time.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND THE AGENDA: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Regarding Item 13.10, I request the full agenda and list of all outside speakers for the Student Wellness Day. Parents have a right to review all content presented to their children.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Lost Academic Time

| 👀 MONITOR (LEVEL 5) |
|
District Restricts Public Comment Time
Under items 5.1 and 17.1, the board is enforcing a strict public comment protocol. Comments are limited to two minutes per person, and the entire session cannot exceed thirty minutes total. This is a governance tactic to limit parents’ ability to voice their concerns and hold the board accountable on controversial issues.
Recommended Action Plan
SPEAK UP: Sign up for public comment and use your two minutes effectively. Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘A 30-minute limit on public comment is an insult to parents. We demand you respect our right to be heard.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Board Oversight

| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
Multiple personnel items (7.2, 7.4, 7.5, 7.7, 7.8, 7.12, 7.13, 7.14) reference backup material in PDF files that were not included in the agenda packet. These documents detail new hires, resignations, promotions, and leaves of absence, which could include hiring for positions like ‘DEI Coordinator’ or other administrative bloat.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the files attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether they contain sensitive policy changes or new ideological positions.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed

✅ Wins to Defend
Good moves worth showing up to support so they stick.

| Major Win (LEVEL 8) |
|
WIN: District Bans Personal Cell Phones During School Day
The board is approving Policy 5516, which prohibits students from using personal internet-enabled devices from the first bell to the last. This is a huge win that will reduce distractions, limit access to harmful social media, and help return the focus of the classroom to academics. This policy protects our kids and is a model for other districts.
How to Lock It In
AMPLIFY THE WIN: Show up to thank the Board for passing Item 6.2. Publicly praise their commitment to a focused learning environment. This creates a strong public record, making the policy harder to reverse quietly later.
✅ Why It Matters: Focused Academics
