| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Board Opens Meetings with Divisive Political Rituals
The board begins every meeting with a “Labor and Body Recognition Acknowledgment” that claims the U.S. is built on “systemic injustice” and the exploitation of “Black and Brown bodies.” This forces a divisive political ideology into official school district business, setting the stage for policies based on activism instead of academics.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND NEUTRALITY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘School board meetings should focus on education, not political rituals. Please remove the divisive ‘Labor and Body Recognition’ statement from the opening procedures and return to neutral, unifying language.’

District Formally Adopts “Anti-Racism” Ideology
The board reads its official “Anti-racism Statement” at meetings, committing the district to dismantling “inequitable policies” and uncovering “unconscious biases.” This is the foundational language for implementing Critical Race Theory-based programs that can lead to student division and lowered academic standards in the name of “equity.”
Recommended Action Plan
CHALLENGE THE PREMISE: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘The Board’s ‘Anti-racism Statement’ commits our district to a divisive ideology. I demand a return to policies that treat every student as an individual, focusing on academic excellence and equality of opportunity, not equality of outcome.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Foundation for CRT/DEI

New Discipline Policy Focuses on “Equity,” Not Safety
Staff is presenting a new district discipline framework focused on being “equitable,” alongside an “Anti-Slur Initiative.” This approach often leads to “restorative justice” policies that reduce consequences for misbehavior and can create speech codes, punishing students based on subjective feelings rather than objective rules.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND DETAILS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Regarding item F.2, will the new discipline framework apply consequences equally to all students for the same offense? Parents need to see the full text of the ‘Anti-Slur Initiative’ to ensure it doesn’t violate student rights.’

Nearly $700k in Grants Hidden in Consent Agenda
The board is set to approve $698,974 in grants through a bundled “consent” vote, but the document detailing the source and purpose of these funds was not included in the agenda packet. This prevents parents from knowing if this money comes with ideological strings attached, such as requirements to adopt specific DEI or SEL programs.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for item C.3 in the Official Agenda (linked above) to find the grant details. Email the Board via the District Office: ‘Pull item C.3 from the consent agenda. The public deserves a full discussion on the source and any attached requirements for the $698,974 in grant funding before you vote.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $698,974 (Strings Attached?)

Undisclosed Vendor Contracts on Consent Agenda
The board is approving an unknown number of vendor contracts for “specialized services” in a single consent vote, but the list of vendors and contract details is in an unprovided attachment. This is a common method for approving contracts with ideological consultants or curriculum providers without public debate.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for item C.5 in the Official Agenda (linked above) to identify the vendors. Email the Board via the District Office: ‘Pull item C.5 from the consent agenda. Parents have a right to know which vendors are being paid to provide services to our children before you approve their contracts.’

Board Limits Public Comment to One Minute on Key Votes
The board limits public comment on specific action and discussion items to just one minute per speaker. This is not enough time for parents to meaningfully address complex issues like the budget or new discipline policies, effectively silencing detailed public input right before the board votes.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TO BE HEARD: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘One minute is not enough time for parents to address the board on important action items. We demand you restore a minimum of two minutes per speaker to ensure our voices are fully heard before you vote.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Silencing Parental Voice
