| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |

District Renews “Leader in Me” SEL Program
The district is renewing its contract with Franklin Covey for “The Leader in Me.” This is a well-known Social Emotional Learning (SEL) program that shifts classroom focus from core academics to subjective, non-academic “leadership” habits and mindsets.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Call Board President Jon Simons at (513) 864-1000 and email Treasurer Christine Poetter at cpoetter@vikingmail.org: ‘Pull Item 4.H from the Consent Agenda. Parents have a right to know how much class time is being diverted from core academics to the “Leader in Me” SEL program.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Replacing Academics with SEL

Vague County Contract Linked to “Affirmation & Belonging”
The board is approving a revised service contract with the Hamilton County Educational Service Center (ESC). The agenda explicitly links this contract to the district’s “Affirmation & Belonging” (DEI) priority but provides no details on what services will be provided or at what cost.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email Treasurer Christine Poetter at cpoetter@vikingmail.org: ‘I demand Item 4.F be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and vote. Parents deserve to see the full ESC contract and know what “Affirmation & Belonging” services our district is buying.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed

Student Data Collection Contract with County ESC
The district is contracting with the Butler County ESC for “Data Analytics.” It is unclear what student data will be collected, how it will be used, and who will have access to it, creating a major privacy risk for our children.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email Treasurer Christine Poetter at cpoetter@vikingmail.org: ‘Regarding Item 4.G, what specific student data will be shared with the Butler County ESC? Please provide the parental notification and opt-out forms before this contract is approved.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

District Strategic Plan Pushes “Affirmation & Belonging”
The district’s entire strategic plan is framed around five priorities, including “Affirmation & Belonging.” This is often a euphemism for DEI initiatives, critical race theory concepts, and gender ideology being embedded into all aspects of school life.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The agenda links to the full Strategic Plan. Parents need to read it and demand a clear, jargon-free definition of ‘Affirmation & Belonging’ and a list of all programs it entails. Call Board President Jon Simons at (513) 864-1000.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Focus on Activism, Not Academics

Renewal of Politically Biased News Source for Students
The district is renewing its subscription to newsela, a digital content provider known for curating news articles with a strong left-leaning political bias. This exposes students to one-sided perspectives on current events under the guise of reading practice.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND NEUTRALITY: Contact Superintendent Gary Card through the District Office at (513) 864-1000: ‘Regarding Item 4.I, what is the review process for ensuring content from newsela is politically neutral and age-appropriate? Parents do not consent to biased news sources in the classroom.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: One-Sided Political Content
