District Buys ‘Positive Prevention Plus’ Sex Ed Curriculum
Under the Consent Agenda, item XI.B.f, the district is purchasing ‘$11,971.05’ of ‘Positive Prevention Plus’ curriculum for sex education. This is a known ‘Comprehensive Sex Ed’ program that often includes graphic content and gender ideology, topics that should be taught at home by parents.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a critical threat. Email the Board of Trustees and Superintendent Rossall (contact info on district website): ‘I demand that Purchase Order PO3W-65102-0000544-270000000127-1-New for Positive Prevention Plus be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate vote. Parents do not consent to Comprehensive Sex Ed in our schools. Vote NO.’

School Plan Removes Tutoring for Struggling Students
Item XIII.A proposes a revision to the Joe Walker school plan that explicitly removes an activity providing ‘specific targeted instruction and tutoring’ for students who are not proficient in core subjects. While adding ‘academic supports’ elsewhere, the district is simultaneously deleting a key program designed to help children who are falling behind academically.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ANSWERS: Email the Board of Trustees and Superintendent Rossall (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding Item XIII.A, why is the district removing the tutoring program for students who are not proficient? We expect the district to prioritize academic catch-up, not eliminate it. Vote NO on this revision.’
💰 Impact: Academic Remediation

District Spends Over $1.5M on Third-Party Therapy Services
A contract for $1,581,250 with ‘Seabright School & Therapy Staffing’ is listed under item XI.B.f for contracted therapy services. This massive expenditure on outside mental and behavioral services raises questions about parental notification and consent, potentially creating a pipeline for school-based clinics that operate without parents present.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board of Trustees (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the $1.58M contract with Seabright under Item XI.B.f, what specific services will be provided, and what are the district’s policies for parental notification and consent before a child receives these services? Pull this from the Consent Agenda for public discussion.’
💰 Impact: $1,581,250

District Funds ‘Social Emotional Competency’ Programs
Multiple purchase orders under Item XI.B.f are designated for ‘LCAP 3.06 POS S.E. COMPETENCY,’ which is code for Social Emotional Learning (SEL). These purchases, spread across at least a dozen schools, show a systemic, district-wide push to implement SEL programming, which often replaces academic instruction with subjective emotional exercises.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email the Board of Trustees (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding the LCAP 3.06 SEL spending in Item XI.B.f, please provide the curriculum and the specific parental opt-out forms for this program before the vote. We demand a focus on academics, not social-emotional engineering.’
💰 Impact: Focus on Academics

Taxpayer-Funded ‘Equality Club’ in Middle School
The Personnel Report under Consent Agenda item XI.B.e includes a paid stipend for a teacher to run an ‘Equality Club’ at Joe Walker school for the entire school year. Parents need to be aware of ideologically-focused clubs, who is running them, and what material is being presented to students.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK FOR CURRICULUM: Contact the principal of Joe Walker Middle School: ‘Regarding the ‘Equality Club’ listed in the October 6th Personnel Report, please provide the club’s mission statement, curriculum, and a list of all outside groups or materials that will be used. Parents have a right to know what is being taught in school-sponsored clubs.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed Stipend

Vague Title — Manual Review Required
Item XI.B.d is for the approval of a ‘Universal Gift List,’ but the attachment detailing the gifts was not included in the agenda packet.

Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for Item XI.B.d attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm the details of the ‘E-Sports Equipment’ donation. Ask the board what the total daily screen time will be for students using this equipment and what academic activities it will replace.
💰 Impact: Increased Screen Time
