| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |

Board Plans to Lobby Against Parental Rights Bills
Under the guise of ‘preserving local authority,’ the Board’s proposed 2027 legislative agenda (Item 15.01) includes opposing state-level bills that would give parents more say over instructional materials. This is a direct effort to use taxpayer money to lobby against potential curriculum transparency laws that would empower parents.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: The Board plans to approve its lobbying agenda (Item 15.01) which includes fighting against parental rights in the state legislature. Sign up for public comment and email the School Board (contact info on district website): ‘Do not use my tax dollars to lobby against my rights as a parent. Vote NO on the 2027 Legislative Priorities that oppose state-level curriculum transparency.’
💰 Impact: Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying

Board to Lobby for School-Based Telehealth Services
The Board is set to approve its 2027 legislative priorities (Item 15.01), which include lobbying for state funding for student mental health services, specifically naming ‘contracted telehealth services.’ This could open the door to students receiving mental health counseling at school via video chat without parental presence or full consent.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the School Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the 2027 Legislative Priorities under Item 15.01, I oppose using district resources to lobby for school-based telehealth services that operate without direct parental involvement. Parents must be the primary decision-makers for their child’s mental health. Remove this from the priorities list.’
💰 Impact: Parental Oversight

Vague Revisions to Student Immunization Policy
The Board is conducting a ‘First Reading’ of revisions to Policy 723, which covers physical exams and immunizations for students. While the district claims the changes are to align with state law, the full text of the proposed changes and their impact on medical or religious exemptions is not clear from the agenda.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The attachments for Item 18.01 are incomplete. Email the School Board (contact info on district website): ‘Before the First Reading of Policy 723, please provide the public with the full red-lined text of the proposed changes. Parents need to confirm that no changes are being made to weaken or remove religious or medical exemptions for immunizations.’
💰 Impact: Your Child’s Health Freedom

Secret Meeting on Student Religious Exemptions
The Board is going into a closed session to consult with lawyers about ‘requests for religious exemptions pertaining to specific students.’ While specific student cases are private, this signals that the district is dealing with parental rights issues behind closed doors. Parents have a right to know the policies and standards being applied in these cases.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: The Board is meeting in secret about religious exemptions (Item 2.01). Email the School Board (contact info on district website): ‘While student privacy is important, the policies governing religious exemptions must be transparent. Please publicly reaffirm the district’s commitment to protecting the constitutional religious freedom of all students and families.’
💰 Impact: Secret Deliberations
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Normalizing Social-Emotional Intervention in Schools
The Board will recognize ‘National School Psychology Week’ with a resolution praising school psychologists for building students’ ‘social-emotional skills’ and applying expertise in ‘mental health.’ This language normalizes the school’s role in shaping a child’s emotional and psychological development, areas that belong to parents.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: This resolution is part of Item 13.01. Email the School Board (contact info on district website): ‘The role of schools is academics. The role of parents is to guide a child’s social and emotional development. Please keep these lanes separate and focus school resources on academic achievement.’
💰 Impact: Replacing Academics
