District Joins Lawsuit Against Social Media & Gaming Companies
The Board is voting to sue social media and video game companies for allegedly causing a ‘public health crisis’ and ‘harms to students.’ This commits the district to a politically charged legal battle, using school resources to fight a culture war issue instead of focusing on academics. The district will pay lawyers 30% of any money recovered.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ANSWERS: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Regarding Consent Items VIII.ii and VIII.iii, how does this lawsuit improve student reading and math scores? I demand these items be pulled from the Consent Slate for a full public discussion on the costs and educational benefits before any vote.’
💰 Impact: 30% Contingency Fee

First Look at New Child Abuse Prevention Policy and Curriculum
The Board is reviewing a new policy on child abuse prevention that includes ‘age-appropriate and culturally sensitive’ curriculum on sexual abuse, assault, and human trafficking. While the policy mentions a parental right to opt-out, parents must demand to see the actual curriculum to ensure it’s about safety, not sexualizing children or pushing a social agenda.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TO REVIEW: This is only a first reading. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details) before the next meeting: ‘Regarding Item XV.iii.b.1, I demand the proposed curriculum for child abuse prevention be made public for parental review and comment before this policy comes back for a final vote.’
💰 Impact: Unvetted Curriculum

New Visitor Policy Singles Out Immigration Enforcement
A proposed new policy for campus visitors includes specific rules for ‘immigration-enforcement officers,’ requiring them to have a judicial warrant to enter. This embeds a political ‘sanctuary campus’ stance into what should be a neutral safety policy, potentially creating conflict with federal law enforcement.
Recommended Action Plan
FOCUS ON SAFETY, NOT POLITICS: This is a first reading. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Regarding Item XV.iii.b.2, school safety policies should be neutral and apply to all visitors equally. Remove politically charged language specific to immigration enforcement and focus on protecting our kids.’
💰 Impact: Political Posturing

New Policy Creates Tiers for School Admission Lottery
The Board is approving a new policy that gives preferential admission to students from a specific dual-language academy and those living within Duarte USD boundaries. This creates a tiered system that changes the odds for all other families trying to get their children into the school through the public lottery.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK FOR FAIRNESS: Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Regarding Consent Item VIII.v, all families deserve a fair shot at admission. I request this item be pulled from the Consent Slate to discuss how this new preference system impacts families outside the preferred zones.’
💰 Impact: Altered Admission Odds

Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Regarding Item XV.iii.a.5, what specific curriculum from Digital Citizenship Week will be used in classrooms, and what is the process for parents to review it and opt their children out?’
💰 Impact: Ideological Curriculum

‘Strategic Plan’ Focuses on ‘Wellness’ and ‘Diversity’
A recap of the district’s strategic planning sessions highlights focus areas like ‘student wellness supports,’ ‘increase workforce diversity,’ and supporting ‘diverse learners.’ While presented as high-level goals, these are often the first step toward introducing SEL and DEI initiatives into the classroom.
Recommended Action Plan
Monitor: This shows the district’s direction. Keep an eye on future board meetings for specific policies or spending that bring these ‘strategic’ goals to life.
💰 Impact: Shift from Academics
