District Using Panorama Surveys to Track Student Emotions
A presentation for Goodland Montessori (Item 5.A) reveals a school goal to use Panorama surveys to measure and increase students’ “Emotional Regulation.” Panorama is a controversial data-mining company that pushes Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and collects sensitive psychological data on children, often without full parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a data-mining operation targeting your child’s inner emotional life. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details) and demand they pull Item 5.A for a full public discussion: ‘We do not consent to the psychological profiling of our children by Panorama Education.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Psychological Data

District Launching “Restorative Practices” Pilot Program
The district’s budget presentation (Item 3.A) reveals a new pilot program for “Restorative Practices” at Julian Thomas Elementary, and the personnel report (Item 11.A) confirms a “Restorative Practices Coordinator” is being hired. These programs often replace traditional discipline with group therapy sessions, diminishing accountability for misbehavior and promoting ideological concepts about social justice.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Regarding the budget presentation (Item 3.A) and personnel changes (Item 11.A), what curriculum is the ‘Restorative Practices Coordinator’ using? Parents have a right to know how discipline will be handled before this pilot expands.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Classroom Discipline Replaced with Activism

District Policy Replaces Civics with “Global Citizenship”
The “Results-4 (Global Citizenship)” monitoring report (Item 11.F) confirms the district’s focus on teaching students their “place in a global society” and valuing “diverse culture norms.” The policy explicitly includes acquiring “social and emotional skills,” embedding SEL into the curriculum under a vague, globalist banner instead of focusing on foundational American civics.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND A RETURN TO BASICS: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Regarding Item 11.F, the ‘Global Citizenship’ policy prioritizes a globalist worldview and SEL over foundational American civics. We demand a return to academic basics, not social engineering.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undermining American Civics

Policy Allows Teachers to Voice Personal Opinions on Controversial Topics
Policy 2240, attached to the Instructional Program report (Item 11.E), permits teachers to express their “personal opinion” on controversial issues in the classroom after student discussion has concluded. This policy opens the door for teachers to push their own political or social views on a captive audience of children, undermining parental authority.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND A POLICY CHANGE: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Policy 2240, referenced in Item 11.E, must be changed. Teachers should not be expressing personal opinions on controversial topics in the classroom. This is inappropriate and undermines parental authority.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Politicized Classrooms

| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |

Mandatory “Equity” Training for All District Staff
The Instructional Program monitoring report (Item 11.E) states that 100% of staff must participate in “professional learning related to equity practices” through a program called “RUSD BELONG.” This type of mandatory training often promotes divisive concepts like critical race theory and implicit bias, which can translate into biased classroom instruction.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Regarding Item 11.E, what specific materials are used in the mandatory ‘RUSD BELONG’ equity training? Parents have a right to see the ideological content being taught to our children’s teachers.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Politicized Teacher Training

Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The agenda lists a “Resolution of Censure” under Action Item 13.B with no attached document or explanation. This could be a routine matter, or it could be an attempt by the board to formally silence a dissenting board member who is standing up for parents.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains sensitive policy changes. If this resolution targets a board member, we need to know why.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Board Oversight
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
A referral for a “joint statement on the new cell phone policy” is on the agenda as Item 14.A, but the document itself is not included in the provided text. New cell phone policies can impact student safety and a parent’s ability to contact their child in an emergency.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file attached to Item 14.A in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm the details of the new cell phone policy.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Restricted Parent-Child Contact
