District Pays for ‘Comprehensive Sex Ed’ Teacher Training
The board is approving an $1,800 contract with ‘Positive Prevention Plus’ to train 7th-8th grade science teachers in ‘comprehensive sexual health education and HIV prevention’ as required by the California Healthy Youth Act. This vendor specializes in curricula that often includes sensitive topics on gender identity and sexual orientation, bypassing parental values.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is how radical sex-ed gets into the classroom — through teacher training. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and email the Board: ‘Vote NO on Item IX.G.14. Parents, not the state, should be the primary educators of their children on sensitive topics of sexuality.’

Outside Group to Provide ‘School-Based Counseling’
The district is approving a two-year agreement with Didi Hirsch Health Services to provide ‘school-based counseling’ at no direct cost. This opens the door for mental health services to be provided to students on campus, potentially without direct parental notification or consent for each session.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Who is counseling our children? Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and email the Board: ‘Regarding Item IX.G.9, what are the specific parental notification and opt-in consent policies for counseling services provided by Didi Hirsch? We do not consent to therapy by proxy.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Parental Consent

Social Work Interns to Practice on Students
The district is approving an agreement to allow Social Work students from Mount Saint Mary’s University to gain ‘fieldwork experience’ in our schools. This places uncertified trainees, who are taught to view families through a specific ideological lens, in positions to interact with and assess our children.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND OVERSIGHT: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and email the Board: ‘Regarding Item IX.F.4, what are the exact duties of social work interns, and what is the policy for parental consent before they interact with any student? Our children are not training material for university students.’

District Spends $140k on ‘Leader in Me’ SEL Program
Buried in the purchase orders is a $140,397 payment to Franklin Covey. This is for their ‘Leader in Me’ program, a comprehensive Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum that reshapes school culture around subjective ‘habits’ rather than focusing on core academics.
Recommended Action Plan
FOLLOW THE MONEY: This massive SEL contract was hidden in the purchase order list. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and email the Board: ‘Pull PO# PO1-270000000104 for public discussion. Why is the district spending $140k on SEL instead of on academic recovery?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $140,397

District Spends $280k to Teach ‘Social Emotional’ Recess
The purchase order list includes a massive $280,000 contract with Playworks Education Energized. This group replaces traditional recess with structured, SEL-focused ‘play’ to teach concepts like conflict resolution, turning free time into another form of social programming.
Recommended Action Plan
FOLLOW THE MONEY: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and email the Board: ‘Regarding PO# PO1-270000000141, why are we spending $280,000 to teach kids how to play? This money should be spent on reading and math tutors, not on social engineering at recess.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $280,000

Changes to Parent Notification Policy Kept from Public
The board is voting on a large batch of policy updates, including Board Policy 5145.6 regarding ‘Parent/Guardian Notifications.’ The actual text of the revised policy has not been made public with the agenda, hiding what could be critical changes to your right to know what’s happening with your child at school.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file for Item VIII.A.2.an and VIII.A.2.ao in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it weakens parental notification rights. Email the Board (contact info on the district website): ‘Table the vote on all policies under Item VIII.A.2 until the public has 30 days to review the full text of the proposed changes.’

District Pushes ‘Community Schools’ Model
The agenda includes multiple items, like increasing ‘Parent Liaison’ hours (VIII.C.2) and sending staff to a ‘Community Schools EMPOWER Summit’ (IX.G.6), all in support of the ‘Community Schools Initiative.’ This model turns schools into hubs for social services and health clinics, often funded by grants with ideological strings attached, and can reduce the role of parents.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK THE HARD QUESTIONS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and email the Board: ‘What specific outside organizations will be brought into our schools under the Community Schools model, and what grant requirements is the district agreeing to? Parents must have oversight over all services offered to students.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Government Overreach

State Preschoolers to be Profiled with ‘Developmental’ Software
The district is entering an agreement with the CA Dept. of Social Services to use ‘DRDP Tech’ software on state preschool students. This is a developmental assessment tool that collects subjective data on our youngest children’s social-emotional behaviors, creating a permanent data file before they even enter kindergarten.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and email the Board: ‘Regarding Item IX.J.2, is the DRDP assessment mandatory for preschoolers? Provide parents with a clear opt-out form for this data collection and explain who owns our children’s data.’

Board Limits Public Comment to 30 Minutes Per Topic
The agenda states that the Board limits the total time for public comment on any topic to 30 minutes. This rule can be used to silence parents by cutting off discussion on controversial issues when many community members sign up to speak.
Recommended Action Plan
DEFEND FREE SPEECH: Sign up for public comment to address this rule. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and email the Board: ‘The 30-minute total time limit on public comment is an unacceptable restriction on the community’s First Amendment rights. We demand this policy be revised to allow for full public input.’
