Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Riverside Unified. We found 7 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9)
$173 Million in Contracts Hidden in a Single Vote
πŸ“… August 27, 2026
The board plans to approve a $173,239,623 list of purchase orders and contracts (Item L.5) as part of the consent agenda. The list of vendors and services is not provided, hiding who is getting this money and for what purpose, which could include ideological consultants or controversial curriculum providers.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Parents have a right to know where $173 million is going. Item L.5 must be pulled from the Consent Agenda, and the full vendor list must be made public before any vote.’

πŸ’° Taxpayer Impact: $173,239,623.44
🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9)
$10.7M Plan for 37 Schools Hidden in Consent Vote
πŸ“… August 27, 2026
The board is approving ‘School Plans for Student Achievement’ for 37 schools at a cost of over $10.7 million (Item L.29). These plans, required for federal Title I and state LCFF funds, often embed Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and DEI initiatives under vague terms like ‘evidence-based strategies’ and ‘comprehensive needs assessment.’
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Item L.29, impacting 37 schools, must be pulled from consent. The board must publicly present the ‘Plan for Student Achievement Summary’ before voting on this $10.7 million expenditure.’

πŸ’° Taxpayer Impact: $10,726,835 (Federal & State Strings Attached)
🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8)
Multiple Policy Changes Hidden on Consent Agenda
πŸ“… August 27, 2026
Item L.2 bundles seven different Board Policy and Bylaw revisions into a single vote on the consent agenda, preventing public discussion on each. This tactic is often used to pass controversial changes to parental rights, meeting conduct, or student policies without scrutiny.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘I demand Item L.2 be pulled from the Consent Agenda. Parents deserve to hear the Board publicly discuss and vote on each of the seven policy changes individually.’

πŸ’° Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Board Oversight
⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6)
Contract for ‘Intensive Behavior Support’ for Foster Youth
πŸ“… August 27, 2026
Item L.12 awards a contract for ‘Intensive Behavior Support’ to Raincross Behavioral and Psychological Services, Inc., funded by the LCAP. The methods and ideology of this vendor are unknown, and ‘behavior support’ can be a trojan horse for psychological interventions and data collection on vulnerable students without full parental knowledge.
Recommended Action Plan

INVESTIGATE: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Regarding Item L.12, what are the specific therapeutic methods used by Raincross Behavioral Services? We need to verify this vendor is not promoting ideological agendas to vulnerable children.’

πŸ’° Taxpayer Impact: $322,000
⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6)
Mass Personnel Changes Approved Without Public Review
πŸ“… August 27, 2026
Item L.34 bundles all district personnel actionsβ€”new hires, promotions, reassignments, and moreβ€”into a single consent vote. This prevents public oversight on who is being hired for key roles, potentially allowing the administration to quietly install personnel with an ideological agenda, such as a DEI officer.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘I request that any new management or district-level positions in Personnel Order 2026/27-01 be announced and discussed publicly, not hidden in a bundled vote.’

πŸ’° Taxpayer Impact: Hiring without Oversight
πŸ‘€ MONITOR (LEVEL 5)
Attendance Policy May Open Door to Family Surveillance
πŸ“… August 27, 2026
The board is adopting Resolution No. 2026/2027-06, declaring September as ‘Attendance Awareness Month.’ These initiatives often serve as a gateway to tracking ‘chronic absenteeism,’ which can lead to intrusive measures like home visits and questioning of parents.
Recommended Action Plan

INVESTIGATE: The resolution text was not included in the agenda packet. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Please provide the full text of Resolution 2026/2027-06 and clarify what specific actions the district will take for Attendance Awareness Month before you vote.’

πŸ’° Taxpayer Impact: Your Family’s Privacy
πŸ‘€ MONITOR (LEVEL 5)
Federal Head Start Grant with Potential Strings Attached
πŸ“… August 27, 2026
Item L.31 accepts $50,000 in federal Head Start funding for ‘professional development’ and ‘classroom materials.’ Head Start programs have a history of promoting ideologies that can undermine parental authority and introduce sensitive topics to very young children, and this money comes with those federal strings.
Recommended Action Plan

OPT-OUT ALERT: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Regarding the Head Start grant in Item L.31, what specific ‘professional development’ will teachers receive, and what ‘classroom materials’ will be purchased with these federal funds?’

πŸ’° Taxpayer Impact: $50,000 (Federal Strings Attached)
