District Plans $82.5M for Phase One of New School
Item 9.05 asks the board to approve a staggering $82,500,000 contract for just the initial design phase of the new Fees College Preparatory Middle School. This is an enormous amount of taxpayer money, and parents must ensure it is being spent on core academic facilities, not ideological extras disguised as ’21st Century’ design.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: The contract details for Item 9.05 were not provided. Email the Governing Board (see the Official Agenda link for contacts): ‘An $82.5M design contract requires full public oversight. Before approving Item 9.05, the board must release the full contract and design scope for public review.’

Student Data Sharing Agreement with High School District
Item 6.08 is a data-sharing agreement to send personally identifiable student information to the Tempe Union High School District. The agreement allows the high school to use your child’s elementary school data for vague purposes like ‘wellness planning,’ creating a permanent data trail that follows your child without specific parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The full agreement for Item 6.08 was not included in the agenda packet. Email the Governing Board (see the Official Agenda link for contacts): ‘Before voting on Item 6.08, please publish the full data-sharing agreement and specify exactly what student data will be shared and how it will be used for ‘wellness planning’.’

District Approving $116K for Unproven VR Software
Under Consent Agenda item 6.06, the board is set to approve a $116,028 purchase of ‘zSpace’ virtual reality software. The district claims this will increase student engagement but has provided no independent evidence that this expensive technology improves academic outcomes or how much daily screen time it will add.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Governing Board (see the Official Agenda link for contacts): ‘Regarding Item 6.06, I demand the Board publish independent, third-party evidence of academic gains from zSpace software and disclose the total daily screen time it will add per student before voting on this $116,028 expenditure.’

New Teacher Training Program with State DOE
Item 9.06 approves an agreement with the Arizona Department of Education to create a ‘Teacher Apprenticeship Program.’ These state-level training programs are often used to push ideological teaching methods like SEL and DEI into local districts, shaping the next generation of teachers.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The agreement for Item 9.06 was not attached. Email the Governing Board (see the Official Agenda link for contacts): ‘Regarding the Teacher Apprenticeship Program in Item 9.06, please publish the full agreement and all associated training curriculum for public review before the vote.’

Update on Federal ’21st Century Grant’
Item 8.01 is a presentation on the ’21st Century Grant’ at Mosley Middle School. These federal grants often come with ideological strings attached, requiring districts to implement specific SEL or DEI programs and collect student data in exchange for funding.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The presentation for Item 8.01 was not included in the packet. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Please provide the presentation materials for the 21st Century Grant update and a copy of the original grant agreement detailing all requirements and mandates.’
π° Impact: Federal Strings Attached

| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |

Animal Therapy Program Linked to ‘Inclusive Practices’
Item 6.07 renews an MOU for ‘Paws for Youth’ to bring therapy animals into schools. While this sounds harmless, the district’s justification explicitly links the program to ‘advancing diverse, inclusive practices, and a sense of belonging,’ suggesting it may be a vehicle for SEL programming.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The MOU for Item 6.07 was not provided. Email the Governing Board (see the Official Agenda link for contacts): ‘Please publish the full Memorandum of Understanding for the Paws for Youth program under Item 6.07. Parents need to see what is being discussed with students during these sessions.’
