Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Euclid City. We found 6 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |
|
Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) Partnership Approved
The district is partnering with the East Cleveland Neighborhood Center to provide ‘social-emotional learning (SEL)’ programs to middle and high school students. SEL often replaces traditional academics with subjective lessons on feelings, attitudes, and beliefs, and the specific curriculum is not disclosed here.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a direct pipeline for SEL in our middle and high schools. Email Superintendent Christopher Papouras at cpapouras@euclidschools.org: ‘I demand Item 11.A be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a full public discussion. Parents have a right to know exactly what SEL curriculum the East Cleveland Neighborhood Center will be teaching our children.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Classroom Instruction Time

| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
School Brokering Therapy via Parent Insurance
The district is authorizing Wonder Star ABA Therapy to provide services in school, with the cost billed directly to parents’ private medical insurance. This puts the school in the middle of your child’s medical care and could pressure families into services they don’t control, all while sharing student data with an outside vendor.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: This creates a troubling link between school and your family’s private health insurance. Call Board President Gabrielle Kelly at (216) 797-2915 and ask: ‘Regarding the Wonder Star ABA agreement, what data is shared with the vendor, and what is the school’s liability when it facilitates services billed to my private insurance? Vote NO on this overreach.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Medical Privacy

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Vague ‘Healthcare Staffing’ Contract
The board is approving a contract with Maxim Healthcare for ‘supplemental healthcare staffing services.’ This vague language could open the door to school-based clinics or mental health services operating without direct parental consent or presence, and the actual contract is not available for review.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email Superintendent Christopher Papouras at cpapouras@euclidschools.org: ‘Regarding Item 8.B, what specific services will Maxim Healthcare staff provide to students, and where is the parental consent form for these services? This contract must be made public before any vote.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Parental Consent
|
| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
Taxpayer-Funded Ideological Committees
The district is paying staff extra stipends to serve on ‘Building Climate’ and ‘MTSS Leadership’ teams. These committees often implement Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and student behavior tracking systems instead of focusing on academics.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email Superintendent Christopher Papouras at cpapouras@euclidschools.org: ‘Regarding the stipends in Item 7.A, what are the specific duties of the Building Climate and MTSS teams, and will parents be notified and given opt-out rights before any surveys or interventions are used on their children?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Stipends
|
| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
School-Based ‘Mental Health’ Services
The district’s agreement with Step Forward (Head Start) includes providing ‘Mental Health Consultant Services’ and ‘Social Services to Families’ on school grounds. This can lead to student evaluations and family interventions that bypass parental authority.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK QUESTIONS: Contact the District Office at the number on the official agenda. Ask: ‘Under the Step Forward agreement (Item 11.B), are parents required to give explicit, written consent before their child or family receives ‘Mental Health’ or ‘Social’ services?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Family Privacy
|
| 👀 MONITOR (LEVEL 5) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The board is voting to approve the monthly financial statement ($2.6M) and an updated five-year forecast, but the actual documents were not included in the agenda packet. This prevents public oversight of how the district is spending taxpayer money.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the files attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether they contain sensitive policy changes. Email Treasurer Patrick Higley (contact info on district site): ‘Please make the August Financial Statement and the updated Five-Year Forecast (Items 6.A and 6.B) publicly accessible before the board votes.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $2.6M+ (Undisclosed)
