Heads up! We have scanned the upcoming agenda for Mount Vernon Comm School District. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |

District Adopting State ‘Protected Classes’ Guidance
Under Item V.2.A, the district is updating its core education goals (Policy 600) to align with state guidance on ‘protected classes.’ This is often a backdoor for introducing policies on gender identity and sexual orientation that can impact everything from bathrooms to curriculum, without direct parental input.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on the district website) and demand that Item V.2.A, specifically Policy 600, be pulled for a separate discussion and vote. Ask them to post the full text of the proposed policy online immediately and explain exactly how the new ‘protected classes’ language will affect students, bathrooms, and parental notification rights.
π° Impact: Gender Ideology in Policy

District to Present 5-Year ‘Support’ System for Students
The elementary principal will present a 5-year vision for a ‘Multi-Tiered System of Supports’ (MTSS) for all students (Item V.1.A). These systems often go beyond academics to include behavioral and emotional interventions, creating a data file on your child that follows them through school.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK FIRST: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask for the ‘Washington Elementary Presentation’ materials to be posted online before the meeting. Ask the board: ‘What specific academic, behavioral, and emotional data will be collected on students under this MTSS framework, who will have access to it, and what is the parental consent and opt-out process?’

District Adopts Policy Protecting Student Religious Expression
The board is set to give a second and final approval to Policy 107, a new policy on religious expression based on a state model (Item V.2.B). This policy is designed to satisfy state law and formally protect students’ First Amendment rights to express their faith.
How to Lock It In
SECURE THE WIN: Show up or email the board to thank them for adopting Policy 107. Publicly supporting good policy makes it harder for future boards to quietly reverse it and sets a positive example for other districts.
