πŸ“„ View Official Agenda
Heads up! We have scanned the upcoming agenda for Pickens 01. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8)
Final Vote on ‘District Wellness’ Policy
πŸ“… October 26, 2026
The board is holding a final vote on ‘Policy ADF- District Wellness.’ Policies with this title often contain provisions for Social Emotional Learning (SEL), mental health screenings, or other ‘whole child’ initiatives that can occur without full parental consent.
Recommended Action Plan

INVESTIGATE: Open the file for ‘Policy Revision ADF’ (Item 5.C) in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains SEL, mental health screenings, or data collection on students. Email the Board to demand they table this final vote until parents can review the full text.

πŸ’° Impact: SEL & Health Screenings
NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7)
District Rushes to Reduce Public Input on Calendar
πŸ“… October 26, 2026
The board is voting on Policy IC to eliminate the requirement for two readings and a separate public meeting before approving the school calendar. They are also asking to waive the second reading for this very policy change, rushing it through with less oversight.
Recommended Action Plan

PACK THE ROOM: Demand the board vote NO on waiving the second reading for Policy IC (Item 5.D). Email the Board: ‘Do not vote to reduce public oversight. We demand the right to a public meeting and two full readings on calendar changes, and we demand the same for this policy itself.’

πŸ’° Impact: Reduced Parental Oversight
NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6)
Undisclosed Capital Improvement Plan
πŸ“… October 26, 2026
The board is voting to approve the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), a major long-term spending plan, based on a presentation at the meeting. The details of what projects and costs are included have not been made public in the agenda for parental review beforehand.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the District Office and demand the full Capital Improvement Plan (Item 5.B) be posted for public review with at least 72 hours’ notice before any vote. Parents have a right to see how taxpayer dollars will be spent.

πŸ’° Impact: Undisclosed Spending
