District Previews Upcoming Ideological Policy Push
The list of future agenda items provides a clear roadmap of the district’s priorities, including drafting an “Anti-Racism Resolution,” a “Climate Resolution,” and new policies on “Sexual Health and HIV/AIDS Prevention Instruction.” These are not just discussions; they are future policies that will directly inject controversial political and social ideologies into our schools, from Critical Race Theory to Comprehensive Sexuality Education.
Recommended Action Plan
EARLY WARNING – PREPARE FOR BATTLE: The board has announced its playbook under Item R.2. We must get organized NOW. Email the Board of Trustees (contact information available on the district website): ‘Parents are watching the future agenda items. We demand that any proposed ‘Anti-Racism Resolution’ or ‘Sexual Health’ policy be developed with full parental transparency and review, and we will oppose any policy that undermines our rights or replaces education with indoctrination.’

Charter Renewal Locks in SEL and Behavioral Intervention Framework
The board is set to approve a five-year renewal for Lighthouse Charter School. The school’s 114-page charter petition explicitly embeds a “Multi-Tiered System of Supports” (MTSS) for academics, behavior, and mental health, grounded in “Social-Emotional Learning (SEL)” and “Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS).” This locks in a framework that can prioritize psychological programming and behavioral management over core academics for the next five years.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a 5-year renewal. Attend the public hearing on Item O.1. and tell the board that while student support is important, SEL and behavioral frameworks like MTSS can lead to data-mining and psychological profiling of students without parental consent. Demand academic transparency and performance be the primary criteria for renewal.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Entrenched SEL Framework

Timekeeping System Justified by ‘Equity’ Agenda
The district is purchasing a $42,201.68 timekeeping software from Frontline Education. While the software itself is for administrative tasks like payroll, the district’s rationale explicitly links it to their LCAP goal of “Elimination of Disproportionalities,” a key phrase in equity agendas. This raises questions about whether the system will be used to track employee data for purposes beyond simple timekeeping, potentially for race-based analysis or quotas.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Trustees (contact information available on the district website): ‘Regarding Consent Item N.2.a, please explain how a timekeeping system supports the goal of ‘Elimination of Disproportionalities.’ What specific staff data, beyond hours worked, will be tracked in this system and for what purpose?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $42,201.68

DEI Department Administers Food Pantry Grant
Buried in a list of routine contracts is a $15,000 grant from Yolo County for a food pantry at Westfield Elementary. The district contact person for this grant is the Director of the “Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Department.” This shows how DEI bureaucracy is expanding to control even non-ideological functions like student food programs, potentially adding unnecessary administrative layers and priorities.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Trustees (contact information available on the district website): ‘Regarding the Yolo County grant in Consent Item N.2.b, why is the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion department managing a food pantry grant? We want assurance that aid is distributed based on need, not ideology.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: DEI Mission Creep

District Adopts Politicized Land Acknowledgement
The board will open its meeting by formally adopting a land acknowledgment statement that recognizes the Patwin people, referencing “centuries of genocide and occupation.” This frames the district’s work through a specific historical and political lens before any business is conducted, setting a divisive tone for the meeting.
Recommended Action Plan
Monitor: This is a symbolic statement, but watch for this language and perspective to be integrated into classroom curriculum. This is how ideology seeps from the boardroom into the classroom.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Political Ritual

| ALERT (LEVEL 2) |

Summer Programs Include ‘Freedom Schools’
The district is celebrating its summer programs, which included “Freedom Schools” and “Culturally-responsive” programming. While presented as enrichment, these programs can be used to introduce politically-charged and divisive concepts outside the standard curriculum and without parental oversight.
Recommended Action Plan
Monitor: Ask the board for the curriculum and materials used in the ‘Freedom Schools’ and ‘Native Education Enrichment’ programs to ensure they are age-appropriate and focused on academics, not activism.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Ideological Programming
