Undisclosed ‘School Improvement Plans’ Up for Vote
The board is scheduled to vote on ‘School Improvement Plans’ under Item 5.B without providing the actual plans for public review. These documents are often used to insert Social Emotional Learning (SEL) or DEI frameworks into the curriculum under the guise of academic improvement.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the board at vashonschoolboard@vashonsd.org: ‘We demand the vote on Item 5.B, School Improvement Plans, be postponed until the full text of the plans are made public for at least 30 days for parental review and comment. Do not vote on secret plans for our children.’
💰 Impact: Hidden Curriculum Mandates

Vague Bond Presentation — Manual Review Required
Under Item 3.A, the board is presenting a bond proposal, which involves a significant new tax burden on the community. The details of what this bond will fund are in an attachment that must be reviewed to ensure it’s for academics and infrastructure, not ideological projects or administrative bloat.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘October 22 2026 Bond Presentation.pdf’ attached to Item 3.A in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm what this bond will fund. Email the board at vashonschoolboard@vashonsd.org and demand a full public breakdown of all proposed spending before any vote.
💰 Impact: Potential Taxpayer-Funded Ideology

Severe Limits on Public Comment Time
The board restricts the entire public comment period to only 15 minutes total, with a 3-minute limit per person. This policy, described under items 1.C and 6.A, effectively silences parents by preventing more than five people from speaking at any given meeting.
Recommended Action Plan
Email the board at vashonschoolboard@vashonsd.org: ‘The 15-minute total time limit for public comment described in Item 1.C is unacceptable and silences the community. We demand you extend this period to allow for meaningful parental input at every meeting.’
💰 Impact: Your Voice is Silenced

Undisclosed Monthly Budget Report
The board is reviewing the monthly budget report under Item 3.E, but the document itself was not successfully extracted for this packet. Parents have a right to easily access and see exactly how their money is being spent each month.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘VISD September 2026 Board Report.pdf’ attached to Item 3.E in the Official Agenda (linked above). Email the board at vashonschoolboard@vashonsd.org: ‘Please ensure all financial documents, like the monthly budget report, are easily accessible to the public well in advance of the meeting.’
💰 Impact: Lack of Financial Transparency

| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague ‘International Travel’ to Costa Rica
The board is discussing a student trip to Costa Rica under Item 4.A. Parents need to verify the trip’s curriculum and purpose to ensure it’s educational and not a ‘global citizenship’ or ‘climate justice’ tour disguised as a language or science trip.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file ‘Costa Rica Trip 2028.pdf’ attached to Item 4.A in the Official Agenda (linked above). Ask the board: ‘What is the specific academic curriculum for this trip, who are the sponsoring organizations, and how will student safety be ensured?’
💰 Impact: Potential Ideological Tourism
