Library Policy Lacks Parental Review Process
The board is set for a final vote on Policy IFBC, which governs school libraries. The policy has no language guaranteeing parents the right to review materials or a transparent process for challenging age-inappropriate books, leaving these critical decisions entirely to the district.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is the final vote. Email the Board (contact info on district website) and speak at the meeting: ‘Vote NO on Item IX.A, Policy IFBC. This policy must be amended to include a clear, parent-led process for reviewing and challenging library materials before it is adopted.’
π° Impact: Your Child’s Reading List

New Policy Hides Curriculum Selection from Parents
The board is introducing Policy IFAB, which governs how ‘supplemental materials’ for classrooms are chosen. The policy punts the entire selection process to ‘Administrative Procedures,’ which are not approved by the board and can be created and changed without public input, effectively hiding curriculum decisions from parents.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: This is a first reading. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding Item IX.C, Policy IFAB, the board must not delegate its oversight of curriculum. The selection process for supplemental materials must be part of the policy itself, not hidden in ‘Administrative Procedures’.’
π° Impact: Bypassing Board Oversight

Internet Policy Opens Door to ‘Digital Citizenship’ Lessons
The proposed update to the Student Internet Safety Policy (IFB) adds a requirement for ‘instruction on for students about appropriate online behavior.’ This vague language is often used to introduce ideological ‘digital citizenship’ or SEL-style curriculum without parental review.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK THE HARD QUESTIONS: This is a first reading. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding Item IX.E, Policy IFB, which specific curriculum will be used to teach ‘appropriate online behavior’? Parents must be allowed to review this curriculum before the policy is approved.’
π° Impact: Ideological Instruction
