📄 View Official Agenda
Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Ankeny Comm School District. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7)
Secret ‘Strategic Planning’ Session
📅 Scheduled Action
The agenda includes a discussion on “ACSD Strategic Planning” under Item IV without providing any draft plan or supporting documents for public review. Strategic plans are where districts often embed long-term ideological commitments, such as DEI initiatives or data-sharing partnerships, outside of the normal curriculum adoption process.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand the full ‘Strategic Planning’ document under Item IV be released immediately. No discussion on a strategic plan should occur until parents have had adequate time to review it.

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Long-Term Ideological Agenda
MONITOR (LEVEL 5)
Undisclosed Annual Goals for 2026-2027
📅 Scheduled Action
The board is set to discuss the annual goals for the upcoming school year under Item III, but the goals themselves have not been made public in the agenda. This prevents parents from reviewing the district’s priorities, which could include controversial initiatives hidden from public view until it’s too late.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand that the ‘2026-2027 Annual Goals’ under Item III be published for public review at least 72 hours before the meeting. Parents have a right to know what the district is planning for their children.

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Hidden District Priorities
ALERT (LEVEL 3)
Watchlist Words in Committee Purpose Review
📅 Scheduled Action
The board is reviewing the purpose of its advisory committee (SIAC), which includes advising on “bullying prevention” and “character education.” While these can be positive, they are also frequently used as entry points for Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and other ideological programs that may not align with parental values.
Recommended Action Plan

Monitor: No immediate action is required, but parents should watch for future recommendations from the School Improvement Advisory Committee (SIAC) under Item II to ensure these topics don’t become vehicles for a political agenda.

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Future Ideological Creep
