CRITICAL: Major Policy Changes Hidden in Consent Agenda
The board is attempting to pass a massive bundle of policy revisions under a single vote on the consent agenda (Item 7.AS). This bundle includes revisions to critical policies like “Nondiscrimination” (BP 0410) and “Parent/Guardian Notifications” (BP 5145.6), but the actual text of the changes is not provided for public review.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: Email the Board immediately (contact info on the Official Agenda link): ‘I demand the entire policy bundle in Item 7.AS be pulled from the Consent Agenda. These policies, especially BP 5145.6, must be discussed individually and voted on only after parents have had a chance to review the proposed changes.’

$88,000 Contract for “Cultural Awareness” Training
The district plans to approve an $88,000 contract with the Eugene Hamilton Group for staff training on “Cultural Awareness” and “Youth Mental Health.” This contract, hidden on the consent agenda, also includes facilitating “student focus group sessions,” which are meetings with children without parents present.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on the Official Agenda link): ‘I demand Consent Item 7.C be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and roll-call vote. Parents deserve to know what the Eugene Hamilton Group will be teaching staff and students under the label of Cultural Awareness.’

District Renews $63,146 Student Surveillance Contract
The district is renewing its contract for Go Guardian, a software that actively monitors students’ activity on their school-issued computers. This program raises serious privacy concerns, as it allows the district to track browsing history, search terms, and documents, creating a digital file on your child.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email the Board (contact info on the Official Agenda link): ‘Regarding Item 7.AB, what data does Go Guardian collect on students, who has access to it, and for how long is it stored? Provide parents with the specific opt-out form for this surveillance software.’

District to Spend $26,700 on SEL Recess Program
Item 7.N is a $26,700 agreement with ‘Playworks Education Energized’ for a ‘Recess Reboot Program.’ Playworks is a national organization partnered with CASEL that specializes in embedding Social Emotional Learning (SEL) into structured recess activities, replacing free play with guided social engineering.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board (contact info on the Official Agenda link): ‘Pull Consent Item 7.N for a separate vote. Recess should be for play, not for SEL programming from vendors like Playworks. Vote NO.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $26,700

New “School Climate & Culture” Staff Position Created
The board is approving a new job description for a “Campus Aide – Title I (School Climate & Culture Support)” under item 7.AL. “School Climate and Culture” are the primary vehicles for implementing and enforcing DEI and SEL ideology at the student level, effectively creating an activist position in schools.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for Consent Item 7.AL attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to see the specific duties of this new position. Email the Board: ‘We need aides focused on academics, not on enforcing school culture. Vote NO on this new position.’

Massive $1.37M Contract Lacks Detail
The board is approving a $1,376,100 agreement with the Kern County Superintendent of Schools for a ‘STEAM Provider Agreement’ under Consent Item 7.O. The document is not attached, and the sheer size of this taxpayer-funded contract requires public scrutiny to ensure funds are for academics, not hidden ideological programs.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for Consent Item 7.O attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to find the details of this enormous contract. Email the Board: ‘A $1.37M contract is too large for the consent agenda. Pull Item 7.O for a full public discussion.’

Vague “Student Achievement Plans” Hidden from Public
The board is set to approve revised “Single Plans for Student Achievement” (SPSA) for five different schools, but the actual plan documents are not attached to the agenda. These plans often contain goals related to non-academic measures like “school climate,” equity, and Social Emotional Learning (SEL).
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the files for Consent Item 7.D attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether they contain sensitive policy changes related to SEL or Equity.

Board Limits Public Comment Time
The agenda restricts the total time for public comment to 30 minutes for items on the closed agenda and 30 minutes for items not on the agenda. This short time limit can be used to silence parents and prevent the community from being fully heard on controversial topics.
Recommended Action Plan
Email the Board (contact info on the Official Agenda link): ‘I am concerned that the 30-minute time limit for public comment under Item 1.D is insufficient for robust community engagement. I urge you to extend this time to ensure all parental voices can be heard.’

Vague Revisions to Volunteer Handbook
The board is approving a revised Volunteer Handbook under item 7.AH, but the document itself is not provided for public review. This could contain new policies that limit parental involvement, impose ideological litmus tests, or create new barriers for parents wanting to volunteer in their children’s schools.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for Consent Item 7.AH attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains new restrictions on parent volunteers.
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Parental Involvement

| ALERT (LEVEL 3) |

Resolution to Pay Absent Board Members
Under item 6.D, the board is voting on a resolution to pay its members for meetings they do not attend. This raises questions about fiscal responsibility and accountability to taxpayers.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for Resolution 20260915-3 attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm the details. Email the Board: ‘Regarding Item 6.D, taxpayers should not pay board members for meetings they do not attend. Vote NO on this resolution.’
