District Pays for ‘Parent Engagement with SEL’
A purchase order for $500 is on the consent agenda for ‘Parent Engagement with SEL Curriculum.’ This uses funds meant for parent partnership to instead promote a Social Emotional Learning (SEL) agenda, normalizing ideological programs over core academics.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Trustees (contact info on district website): ‘I demand the Purchase Order for Christina Fitzgerald (PO1-65102-0000544-270000000098-1-New) under Consent Item XI.B.d be pulled for a separate discussion and vote. What is this SEL curriculum, and why are we paying to engage parents with it instead of with core academics?’
💰 Impact: $500.00

Taxpayer Funds for ‘Inequity’ Training
The district is spending $590 for a staff member to attend a training on how to ‘Address Inequitable Barriers,’ hidden on the consent agenda. This is equity-focused professional development that often diverts focus from academic achievement to divisive social concepts.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Trustees (contact info on district website): ‘I demand the Purchase Order for Kern County Superintendent of Schools (PO2W-65102-0000345-270000000598-1-New) under Consent Item XI.B.d be pulled for a separate discussion. What are these ‘inequitable barriers’ and how does this training improve student reading and math scores?’
💰 Impact: $590.00

Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The board is holding a first reading for a revised policy on the ‘Use of Facilities’ (BP/AR 1330), but the text of the revised policy is not included in the agenda packet. This policy governs who can use school property and under what conditions, and parents deserve to see the changes before the board votes.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for ‘BP/AR 1330, Use of Facilities’ attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains sensitive policy changes before the first reading on Item XVI.C.
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Policy Changes

💰 Impact: Undisclosed
