Summary — 3/26/2026:
Our monitoring of Columbus City Schools District, City School District has identified 9 agenda items that warrant community action.
PRIORITY LEVEL 10
Massive Secret Student Surveillance System
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 31, 2026
The Board is pushing a $1,087,484 contract for 'Security Information and Event Monitoring (SIEM)' from DLT Solutions. Like another item, the 'detailed product and vendor information is being withheld from the public.' This is a critical transparency violation, enabling broad surveillance of student and staff data under the guise of cybersecurity.
Recommended Action
Ultimatum: Call Board President Christina Vera at (614) 365-5000: 'If you vote YES on Item 19.3 without full public disclosure of the SIEM system's capabilities and data collection, TPA Precinct Committeemen will immediately launch a campaign to recruit an America First challenger for your seat.'
💰 Cost: $1,087,484 (Massive Data Surveillance)
PRIORITY LEVEL 9
New Student Surveillance System
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 31, 2026
The Board plans to renew an $84,609 contract for Omnigo Software, an 'early warning system' to track 'safety incidents' and 'patterns of concern' across the district. This is a data-mining tool that could monitor student behavior and collect sensitive information without clear parental consent.
Recommended Action
Email Superintendent Angela Chapman at superintendent@columbus.k12.oh.us: 'I demand to know the full scope of data collected by Omnigo Software (Item 13.4), how it's used, and what parental opt-out options exist. This is a privacy invasion.'
💰 Cost: $84,609 (Student Data Privacy Risk)
PRIORITY LEVEL 9
Secret Data Monitoring Contract
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 31, 2026
The Board is approving a $372,093 contract for 'data monitoring service' from CDW Government LLC. The 'detailed product and vendor information is being withheld from the public' under a state law. This is a massive transparency violation, hiding what data is being collected on students and staff.
Recommended Action
Email Treasurer Ryan Cook at rcook1@columbus.k12.oh.us: 'I demand immediate public disclosure of the full details of the data monitoring contract (Item 19.2). Hiding this information from parents and taxpayers is unacceptable.'
💰 Cost: $372,093 (Secret Data Collection)
PRIORITY LEVEL 7
School Board Pushing Lab-Grown Food
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 31, 2026
The Board is considering a new policy on 'Misbranded Food and Cultivated-Protein Food Products.' This could open the door to replacing natural foods with lab-grown alternatives in school cafeterias, impacting student health and local food choices.
Recommended Action
Email Superintendent Angela Chapman at superintendent@columbus.k12.oh.us: 'I demand full transparency on the health and sourcing of any 'cultivated-protein food products' being considered for our children. Vote NO on Item 4.9 until parents are fully informed.'
💰 Cost: Undefined Health & Sourcing Risks
PRIORITY LEVEL 7
Taxpayer Funds for Radical Mental Health Therapy
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 31, 2026
The Board is approving an $11,760 contract with The Buckeye Ranch for 'intensive mental health and behavioral support' for one student, including 'group therapy' and 'family therapy.' This expands the school's role into private family matters and could expose students to questionable therapeutic models.
Recommended Action
Email Board President Christina Vera (Call District: (614) 365-5000): 'I demand a full explanation of the therapeutic models used by The Buckeye Ranch (Item 15.4) and how parental rights are protected in these 'mental health' interventions.'
💰 Cost: $11,760 (Social Engineering Risk)
PRIORITY LEVEL 7
Undisclosed Personnel Changes
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 31, 2026
The Board is voting on 'Personnel' changes with no public details, only attached files. This lack of transparency could hide the creation of new, ideologically driven positions like 'Chief Equity Officer' or other activist bureaucrats.
Recommended Action
Email Superintendent Angela Chapman at superintendent@columbus.k12.oh.us: 'I demand full transparency on all personnel changes in Item 21.1. We need to know if new, unnecessary, or ideologically-driven positions are being created with taxpayer money.'
💰 Cost: Undefined Bureaucratic Expansion
PRIORITY LEVEL 6
Climate Agenda Hidden in HVAC Upgrades
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 31, 2026
The Board is approving a $380,000 HVAC contract, but the justification explicitly links it to 'Reducing Carbon Footprint' and 'Global Empathy.' This shows a climate change agenda being pushed through routine facility maintenance, diverting focus from core education.
Recommended Action
Email Superintendent Angela Chapman at superintendent@columbus.k12.oh.us: 'I oppose the use of taxpayer funds for climate change activism. Item 16.3 should focus on student comfort and energy efficiency, not 'carbon footprint' or 'global empathy.''
💰 Cost: $380,000 (Climate Agenda Funding)
PRIORITY LEVEL 4
Secret Policy Changes Hidden in Vague Titles
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 31, 2026
The Board is voting on multiple policy changes with vague titles like 'Graduation Requirements' and 'Artificial Intelligence Policy.' The details are hidden in attached files, making it impossible for parents and taxpayers to understand the impact before the vote.
Recommended Action
Email Board President Christina Vera (Call District: (614) 365-5000): 'I demand Items 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, and 4.8 be pulled for public discussion. We need to see the full text of these policies, especially the AI policy, before any vote.'
💰 Cost: Undisclosed Policy Impact
PRIORITY LEVEL 4
Undisclosed Out-of-State Trips
📅 Vote Scheduled Mar 31, 2026
The Board is voting to approve 'Out-of-State and Overnight Field & Other District-Sponsored Trips' with no public details. The attached file must be reviewed to ensure these trips are educational and not promoting controversial ideologies or activities with taxpayer dollars.
Recommended Action
Email Treasurer Ryan Cook at rcook1@columbus.k12.oh.us: 'I demand full disclosure of all destinations and activities for the trips listed in Item 15.8. Taxpayers deserve to know how our money is being spent on student travel.'
💰 Cost: Undisclosed Travel Expenses
