Multiple Vague Policy Updates Pushed Through in a Single Vote
The board is approving first and final readings for over a dozen policies in a single vote, including sensitive topics like “Student Guidance and Counseling Program” (607.01). The actual text of these updated policies is not provided in the agenda, preventing parental review before the vote.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link). ‘Item VII.iii bundles over a dozen policy updates. Parents demand to see the full text of these policies, especially 607.01 Student Guidance and Counseling, before they are approved in a single vote.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Hidden Policy Changes

New “Disruptive Behavior” Policy Introduced Without Public Text
The board is introducing a new policy, 503.11, on “Disruptive Behavior.” The full text of this policy and its associated regulations (R1 and R2) is not included in the agenda, making it impossible for parents to know how student discipline, speech, or behavior will be redefined.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link). ‘Regarding Item VII.iv, please provide the full text of the proposed new policy 503.11 on Disruptive Behavior. Parents must be able to review this before its first reading.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Redefining Student Discipline

$22,120 Media/Videography Contract Hidden in Consent Agenda
The district plans to approve a $22,120 contract with Snaadt Media Group for “media/videography,” bundled into the consent agenda for a single up-or-down vote. The proposal and contract details are in attachments that were not provided, hiding what this money is actually for.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link). ‘I demand Item IV.ii.c for Snaadt Media Group be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion. What specific services are being purchased for $22,120 and how does this support student academic achievement?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $22,120

Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The agenda includes a “Personnel Report” under the Consent Agenda (Item IV.x), but the report itself is a referenced attachment with no text provided. These reports can contain new hires for positions like DEI or SEL coordinators without public discussion.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘August 17, 2026 Personnel Report’ attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains sensitive new hires.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Hires

| Major Win (LEVEL 9) |

District Eliminates “Multicultural Gender Fair” and “Global Education” Policies
The board is voting to completely rescind two policies: “Multicultural Gender Fair Education” (603.04) and “Global Education” (603.10). This is a significant step away from ideologically-driven curriculum and back towards core academics.
How to Lock It In
SECURE THE WIN: Show up to thank the Board for removing these ideological policies. Get this on the record so it can’t be quietly reversed and use it as a model for neighboring districts. Contact the Board to express your strong support for this common-sense move.
✅ Why It Matters: Restoring Academic Focus
