| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
$1.1 Million in Undisclosed Spending
The board is set to approve $1,140,972.70 in purchase orders without providing any public documentation. Hiding large spending items on the consent agenda is a common way to fund ideological vendors or controversial curriculum without parental oversight.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the ‘October 2026 Purchase Order Report’ file for Item 12.D in the Official Agenda (linked above). Scan the vendor list for red flags like Panorama Education, CASEL, or other SEL/DEI consultants before the board votes.
π° Impact: $1.1M

Board to Approve $5.7 Million with No Public Detail
The board is voting on $5,693,351.12 in warrants, but the registers are not included in the agenda, only ‘available for review’ at the district office. This lack of transparency makes it impossible for parents to see where their money is going before it’s spent.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Item 12.E, totaling over $5.6 million, must be pulled from the consent agenda. The warrant registers must be made public online before the vote, not hidden in the business office.’
π° Impact: $5.7M

| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Revisions to ‘Civil Rights’ and ‘Harassment’ Policies
The board is voting on a slate of revised personnel policies, including those on ‘Civil and Legal Rights’ and ‘Sexual Harassment.’ The actual text of these policies has not been provided, but this is often where districts insert language on gender identity, pronouns, and mandatory implicit bias training for staff, which inevitably impacts the classroom environment.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the multiple policy draft files for Item 13.A in the Official Agenda (linked above). Search for terms like ‘gender identity,’ ‘pronouns,’ ‘equity,’ and ‘implicit bias’ to see what is being changed before the board votes.
π° Impact: Ideological Staff Policies

District Hires $55,000 ‘Crisis Management’ PR Firm
The district is paying The Merino Group $55,000 for ‘crisis management’ and ‘strategic communications.’ The firm’s focus on ‘cultural engagements’ and ‘community sensitivities’ suggests they are being hired to manage public perception and push controversial policies past parents.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Pull Item 12.B from the Consent Agenda. Why does the district need a $55,000 crisis PR firm? Parents deserve a public discussion before tax dollars are spent on managing public opinion.’
π° Impact: $55,000
|
| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
District Limits Parent Speaking Time
The board is enforcing rules that limit public comment to three minutes per person, with a total of only twenty minutes for all non-agenda items, and twenty minutes per agenda item. This restricts the ability of parents to voice their concerns and hold the board accountable.
Recommended Action Plan
This is your time to speak. Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Item 5 outlines rules that suppress public input. We demand you expand, not limit, the time for parents to address their elected representatives.’
π° Impact: Reduced Board Oversight
|
| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
Vague Title β Manual Review Required
The board plans to approve an unspecified ‘Personnel Report’ on its consent agenda. These reports can be used to hire staff for ideological roles, such as DEI officers, without public discussion.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for ‘Personnel Report 26/27-07’ (Item 12.A) attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to check for any new administrative or ‘equity’ positions before the vote.
π° Impact: Undisclosed
|
| MONITOR (LEVEL 5) |
|
Student ‘Climate’ and ‘Absenteeism’ Tracking
The district’s LCAP update focuses on metrics like ‘School Climate’ and ‘Chronic Absenteeism,’ and continues funding for a Social Worker position. These are often entry points for Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum and student surveillance, shifting focus from academics to monitoring student and family life.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK FIRST: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Regarding the LCAP update (Item 10.B), what specific programs are used to measure ‘School Climate’? What are the duties of the Social Worker, and what is the parental consent policy before a student receives services?’
π° Impact: Student Surveillance
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
District Proposing E-Sports Lab
The district is presenting a plan for a new ‘E-Sports Lab.’ This initiative introduces significant new screen time into the school day, potentially at the expense of direct instruction, physical activity, and peer interaction.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Before proceeding with the E-Sports Lab (Item 10.D), please provide the independent, non-vendor-funded evidence of its academic benefits and a report on how much daily screen time it will add for students.’
π° Impact: Increased Screen Time
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 3) |
|
District Paves Way for Future Parcel Tax
The board is adopting BP 3471, a policy that creates the legal framework for the district to place a parcel tax on a future ballot. While not a tax itself, this is the first step toward asking homeowners for more money.
Recommended Action Plan
Monitor: The district is setting up the process to ask for more tax money. Track this policy and be prepared to fight any future tax measure that isn’t focused on core academics.
π° Impact: Future Tax Hikes
