Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for San Diego Unified. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Public Comment Replaced by Emailed, Staff-Read Statements
The district is not allowing in-person public testimony at this committee meeting. Instead, parents must email their comments by noon the day before the meeting to be read aloud by a staff member, which allows for filtering and removes the power of a parent’s direct appeal to the board.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TO BE HEARD: This is an unacceptable restriction on free speech and parental rights. Email the ICOC at ICOC@sandi.net and contact the main Board of Education office: ‘We demand the restoration of live, in-person public comment. Having our emails read for us is not public participation, it is public censorship.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Suppression of Parent Voices

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
Accepting Federal COVID Relief Funds with Potential Strings
The district’s financial documents confirm the receipt of federal funds from the CARES Act and the Emergency Connectivity Fund (ECF). This money often comes with ideological strings attached, such as mandates for data-sharing or specific Social Emotional Learning (SEL) programs.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY ON FEDERAL GRANTS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Regarding the federal CARES and ECF funds listed in the Cost Savings Matrix, please provide a full accounting of all conditions and mandates attached to this money, including any requirements for curriculum, data collection, or SEL programs.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Federal Strings Attached

| 👀 MONITOR (LEVEL 5) |

District-Wide Installation of ‘Halo’ Vape Detectors
The district is purchasing licenses for “Halo Vape Detectors” for installation across schools. While aimed at vaping, these devices are a form of student surveillance, and parents need to know what data is collected, who has access to it, and if they have other capabilities like audio monitoring.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK THE HARD QUESTIONS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Regarding the Halo Vape Detectors in the PPO Management Report (Item 78), what is the district’s data privacy policy for this technology? Do these devices have audio recording capabilities, and if so, will they be enabled in our schools?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $65,000 / Student Privacy
