Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for York 03. We found 6 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
New Policy Could Control Parent Groups
The board is introducing a new policy (LEB) and rule (KBE-R) governing “Non-School Sponsored Support Organizations.” Depending on the language, this could be used to impose district control over parent groups like PTOs or even M4L chapters, potentially restricting their activities or access to school facilities.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: This is a First Reading, so we have time to act. Open files ‘Policy LEB’ and ‘AR KBE-R’ on the official agenda to find the specific language. Prepare to challenge any restrictions on parent autonomy at the next meeting.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Suppressed Parent Voice

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Personnel Hires Hidden on Consent Agenda
The board is voting on new personnel hires as part of a bundled “Consent Agenda,” which passes items without individual discussion. This process can be used to approve controversial positions, such as DEI or SEL coordinators, without public scrutiny.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘I demand Item V.B, Personnel Recommendations, be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Parents deserve to know who the district is hiring with our tax dollars.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Staffing
|
| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
Board Communication Plan Could Reduce Transparency
The board is reaffirming its “Communication Plan” with the Superintendent. These plans can sometimes include rules that prevent individual board members from speaking to the public or press, centralizing all communication through the Superintendent and reducing transparency and accountability.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the ‘Communication Plan’ file attached to item VI.D in the Official Agenda. Confirm whether it contains any ‘gag order’ style clauses that limit the ability of elected board members to speak directly to their constituents.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Board Oversight
|
| 👀 MONITOR (LEVEL 5) |
|
New Student Attendance Guidelines Proposed
The district is presenting new attendance guidelines for middle and high school. These policies often contain language about “chronic absenteeism,” which can be a gateway to data tracking systems, mental health screenings, and intrusive home visits without full parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘Attendance Guidelines’ attached to item VIII.C in the Official Agenda. Check for any language authorizing home visits or data sharing with outside agencies for attendance issues.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Student Surveillance
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 3) |
|
Appointment to ‘First Steps’ Early Childhood Board
The district is appointing a representative to the ‘First Steps’ board, a state-level early childhood initiative. While focused on school readiness, these programs can be a primary vehicle for introducing Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and other ideological concepts to children at the pre-K level.
Recommended Action Plan
Monitor: Keep an eye on the curriculum and initiatives promoted by the local First Steps partnership. No immediate action required, but be aware of this as a potential entry point for SEL.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Early Childhood Indoctrination

✅ Wins to Defend
Good moves worth showing up to support so they stick.

| Major Win (LEVEL 7) |
|
Board Earmarks Tax Revenue for Buildings
The Board is passing a resolution to restrict additional tax revenue from two new corporate agreements (Costco and Octapharma). These funds will be dedicated exclusively to building new capital facilities, preventing them from being diverted to administrative bloat or ideological programs.
How to Lock It In
AMPLIFY THE WIN: Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Thank you for your fiscal leadership on Item VI.C. Dedicating the FILOT funds directly to facilities is a responsible use of taxpayer money that directly benefits students.’
✅ Why It Matters: Fiscal Responsibility
