Heads up! We have scanned the upcoming agenda for Fairbanks North Star Borough School District. We found 2 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7) |
|
Board to Elect Officers Using Secret Ballots
The agenda states that if there is more than one nominee for board officer positions (President, VP, etc.), the vote will be conducted by secret ballot. This practice hides how individual board members vote, preventing parents and the public from holding their elected officials accountable for who they choose to lead the board.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the school board at schoolboard@k12northstar.org before the meeting: ‘I urge you to reject the use of secret ballots for electing board officers as stated in items D1, D2, D3, and D4. Public officials must conduct the public’s business in the open. Every vote, including for leadership, should be on the public record.’
💰 Impact: Reduced Board Accountability

Ideological ‘Belonging’ Language in Board Values
The board is framing its procedural actions, including the Oath of Office and officer elections, with the ‘Core Value’ of ‘Belonging,’ defined as a ‘safe and welcoming environment.’ This type of language is often a precursor to specific DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) policies that can introduce social agendas into the classroom.
Recommended Action Plan
Monitor: This ‘Belonging’ language is being presented as a Core Value. Track how the board uses this term in the future to justify new programs or policies. No immediate action required.
💰 Impact: Future DEI Policies
