Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for San Marcos Unified. We found 6 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 10) |
|
Turning Students into Insurance Billing Units
The district is creating a new “Social Worker on Special Assignment” to lead a massive expansion of school-based mental health services. This role is designed to maximize revenue by billing your child’s Medi-Cal or private insurance for services provided at school, creating a system where the school acts as a clinic without parents present.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a plan to create school-based clinics funded by your insurance. Email the Board (see Official Agenda link): ‘I do not consent to my child’s insurance being billed for services at school. Vote NO on Item 9.17 and stop the creation of a school-based billing system.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy & Your Insurance

| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |

New Rule Silences Board Members and Parents
Buried in the Consent Agenda, the board is voting to change its own rules to prevent individual board members from helping parents with complaints (Bylaw 9200). The new rule would force parents to go through the Superintendent, cutting off access to their elected representatives and making it harder to hold the district accountable. Other changes give the Board President power to arbitrarily change public comment time limits.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Pull Item 9.3 from the Consent Agenda for a full public discussion. We elected you to represent us, not to build a wall between parents and the board. Vote NO on the changes to Bylaw 9200.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Board Oversight

| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |
|
New Policies Target Teachers and Student Data
The board is reviewing new policies that would allow them to punish teachers for “discriminatory bias” even if no student is harmed or present (Policy 5145.3). This creates a chilling effect and forces teachers to adopt a specific ideology. Another policy change (5125) would make it easier for the district to share your child’s private records with third-party software companies.
Recommended Action Plan
PUT THEM ON NOTICE: This is a first reading, so now is the time to act. Email the Board (see Official Agenda link): ‘The proposed changes to policies 5145.3 and 5125 are unacceptable. Do not adopt a policy that punishes teachers based on subjective ideology or that gives away our children’s data to vendors. We will be watching this vote closely.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Teacher Academic Freedom

| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Ideological Spending Hidden in Vendor Payments
Buried in a 10-page list of payments on the Consent Agenda, the district is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on ideological and data-mining vendors. This includes $59,735 to Solution Tree (MTSS/PLC training), $10,885 to Committee for Children (Second Step SEL curriculum), and $71,062 to Care Solance (mental health data platform).
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (see Official Agenda link): ‘Pull Item 9.4, the Commercial Warrant Listing, from the Consent Agenda. Parents deserve a public explanation for the large payments to ideological vendors like Solution Tree, Committee for Children, and Care Solance.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Ideological Spending
|
| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Taxpayer-Funded Political Lobbying
The Board is voting to use its official position to support Proposition 3, a statewide tax increase measure. This means our school board is spending its time and our district’s public standing to lobby for a political cause, instead of focusing on academics and school operations.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND NEUTRALITY: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link) and demand they vote NO on Item 8.1. ‘The Board’s job is to educate our children, not to take political positions on statewide tax policy with our district’s name and resources.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Vague Title — Manual Review Required
The board is approving over half a million dollars ($526,175.45) in contracts bundled on the consent agenda. The agenda does not list the vendors, hiding who is getting this money and for what services.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘Board Grid-Contracts for Board Approval 9.10.26.pdf’ attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains contracts with ideological vendors.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $526,175.45
