Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Conestoga Valley SD. We found 5 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 10) |
|
Secret Policy Changes on Upcoming Agenda
The tentative agenda for the September 22 meeting includes Item 6.A, a “First Reading of District Policies,” but fails to disclose which policies are being changed or introduced. This is a common tactic to pass controversial updates on gender identity, parental rights, or curriculum without public scrutiny.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a red alert for the Sept. 22 meeting. Contact the School Board (see the Official Agenda link) immediately: ‘We demand the full text of all policies included in Item 6.A be released to the public now. We will not tolerate secret policy changes affecting our children.’

Student “Test Instruments” Hidden on Consent Agenda
Item 5.F on the September 22 consent agenda seeks approval for “Test Instruments.” This vague term can include climate surveys, mental health screenings, or SEL assessments that collect sensitive data on students and their families without explicit, opt-in parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND A VOTE: Contact the School Board (see the Official Agenda link) before the Sept. 22 meeting and demand that Item 5.F, ‘Approval of Test Instruments,’ be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Ask for a list of every ‘instrument’ and its specific questions before approval.

“Comprehensive Plan” May Hide Ideological Goals
The board will hear an overview of the new “Comprehensive Plan Goals” at the September 22 meeting. These plans are often used as vehicles to introduce non-academic priorities like Social Emotional Learning (SEL) or “equity” initiatives under vague, positive-sounding titles.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand a full copy of the ‘Comprehensive Plan Goals’ for Item 3.A of the September 22 agenda be posted online for public review at least 72 hours before the meeting.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Focus on Academics

Federal Funds Report Lacks Detail
The September 22 agenda includes a report on “Federal Funds” (Item 7.C). These funds, especially post-COVID grants like ESSER, often come with strings attached that mandate specific DEI or SEL programs and student data collection.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK THE QUESTION: During public comment for the September 22 meeting, ask the board regarding Item 7.C: ‘Please provide a detailed public report on all federal funds, including the specific grant names and any attached requirements for curriculum, data sharing, or equity initiatives.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Federal Strings Attached

| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague Construction Documents Require Review
The board is reviewing construction change orders for two elementary schools (Item 5.A). While one document shows a cost savings, two other attachments (Fritz GC-01, MC-01) were not included in the public packet and must be reviewed to ensure no hidden costs are being approved.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the files ‘Fritz Change Order GC-01’ and ‘Fritz Change Order MC-01’ attached to Item 5.A in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm their contents before they are moved to the consent agenda for the next meeting.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed
