Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Washington Elementary School District (4260). We found 5 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |
|
Taxpayer-Funded Trip to Anti-Parent Conference
The board is voting to spend over $3,400 per person to attend the National School Boards Association (NSBA) conference. This is the same organization that asked the federal government to investigate parents as “domestic terrorists” for speaking out at board meetings.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is an insult to every parent in the district. Email the Governing Board (contact info on district website): ‘Vote NO on Consent Item 2.G. Our tax dollars should not fund a trip to the NSBA conference, an organization that has shown contempt for parental rights. Fund academics, not activism.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $3,466 per person

| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Gender Ideology on Overnight 6th Grade Trip
The district’s overnight trip plan for 6th graders at Camp Tontozona includes special sleeping arrangements for students who “do not identify as male/female.” The plan calls for partitions in dorms and dedicated chaperones, operationalizing gender ideology away from home and potentially without parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ANSWERS: Email the Governing Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding Consent Item 2.E, what is the district’s policy for notifying parents if their child requests non-binary sleeping arrangements on an overnight trip? We demand this item be pulled from the consent agenda for a full public discussion on parental notification and consent.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Parental Consent
|
| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |
|
Vague “Communication Protocols” Could Muzzle Board
The board is holding a study session to establish “communication protocols” between the board and superintendent, but the document outlining these protocols is missing. These policies are often used to create a “chain of command” that prevents board members from investigating parent concerns directly, reducing transparency and accountability.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘Washington ESD Communication Protocols – September 2026.docx’ attached to Item 4.A in the Official Agenda (linked above). If it restricts board members’ ability to speak with staff or investigate issues, email the board to oppose any ‘gag rule’ that limits their duty to represent parents.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Reduced Board Oversight
|
| 👀 MONITOR (LEVEL 5) |
|
“No-Bid” Vendor List Hidden from Public
The board is set to approve a list of “sole source” vendors who can receive contracts without competitive bidding, but the actual list was not attached to the agenda. This process can be used to fast-track ideological consultants or curriculum providers without proper public scrutiny.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Governing Board (contact info on district website): ‘I demand Consent Item 2.K be pulled from the Consent Agenda and postponed until the correct vendor list is attached for public review. We will not approve a blank check for no-bid contracts.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed

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

| Win (LEVEL 4) |
|
Board Strengthens Oversight of District Audits
The board is adopting a revision to Policy 3-108 that requires the full board to approve the independent auditing firm and the terms of the contract. This is a good governance move that increases the board’s direct oversight of the district’s finances.
How to Lock It In
AMPLIFY THE WIN: Show up or email the board to thank them for approving the changes to Policy 3-108 under Item 2.L. ‘Thank you for strengthening the board’s oversight of financial audits. This is a welcome step toward greater transparency and accountability to taxpayers.’
✅ Why It Matters: Increased Accountability
