Vague ‘Bullying Interventions’ Could Hide SEL
The revised anti-bullying policy, up for a Second Read under item 5.C, mandates ‘interventions’ like counseling, conflict resolution, and skill-building. These terms are often used as cover for Social Emotional Learning (SEL) programs that can replace discipline with therapy and inject controversial values.
Recommended Action Plan
This is a Second Read, which is the last stop before a final vote. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Regarding Item 5.C, Policy 249, what specific curriculum will be used for the mandatory ‘skill-building’ and ‘counseling’ interventions? Parents have a right to know if these are SEL programs before you approve this policy.’

Teachers to Supervise Medication on Field Trips
The new ‘Use of Medications’ policy (Item 5.B) allows teachers, not just nurses, to supervise a child self-administering medication on field trips. This could put children’s health at risk if a teacher is not properly trained or if a mistake is made without a medical professional present.
Recommended Action Plan
Contact the Board before the meeting (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Regarding Item 5.B, Policy 210, I am concerned about teachers, rather than nurses or parents, supervising medication administration on field trips. This is a safety risk. Please amend the policy to require a licensed nurse or a parent/guardian to handle all student medication.’

District Can Cancel Your Child’s Bus Route
Under new transportation rules in Policy 810 (Item 5.D), if your child doesn’t ride the bus for 10 consecutive days, the district can remove them from the route. Getting service restored requires a written request and a minimum 5-day wait, creating a potential hardship for families with unexpected transportation needs.
Recommended Action Plan
This is a Second Read, so action is needed now. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘Regarding Item 5.D, Policy 810, the 10-day non-use cancellation and 5-day reinstatement delay will create a hardship for families. Please remove this provision and trust parents to manage their transportation needs.’

Federal Grant Rules Force Affirmative Action in Contracts
The district is updating its purchasing policy (Item 5.E) to comply with federal grant rules. These rules require the district to take ‘affirmative steps’ to hire contractors based on identity categories like ‘minority businesses’ and ‘women’s business enterprises,’ showing how federal money comes with ideological strings attached.
Recommended Action Plan
This is an information item, but it’s a chance to speak out. Sign up for public comment to address the Board: ‘The procurement update in Item 5.E shows how federal grants force ideological requirements on our district. I urge the board to reject any funding that requires us to make hiring decisions based on identity politics instead of merit.’
