Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Santa Maria-Bonita. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9)
New DEI & SEL Bureaucrats Proposed for District
📅 Scheduled Action
The board is reviewing job descriptions for two new high-level positions: a “Coordinator of Culture and Climate” and a “Counselor on Special Assignment.” These roles are explicitly designed to push ideological programs like DEI, Social-Emotional Learning (SEL), and “restorative practices” across all schools, while searching for “implicit barriers” in the district.
Recommended Action Plan

PACK THE ROOM: This is the first reading. We must stop these positions before they are created. Email the Board of Education (verify contacts on the district website) and speak at the meeting: ‘I oppose agenda items XI.A, XII.C.ii, and XII.C.iii. Our district needs to fund teachers and academics, not hire more bureaucrats to push divisive DEI and SEL ideology.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Two New Bureaucrat Salaries
⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7)
Vague Contract Approvals on Consent Agenda
📅 Scheduled Action
The board plans to approve a list of vendor contracts as part of the consent agenda, meaning it will pass without discussion. The agenda does not disclose who these vendors are or what services they are providing; the list is in an attachment that was not included in the public packet.
Recommended Action Plan

INVESTIGATE & DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: The file for Item XII.B.i must be opened from the official agenda link to identify the vendors. If any are ideological (e.g., SEL, data-mining), email the Board immediately: ‘I demand Item XII.B.i be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and public vote. Parents have a right to know who the district is paying with our tax dollars.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed
👀 MONITOR (LEVEL 5)
After-School Program Contract Includes SEL
📅 Scheduled Action
The district is approving a $230,468 contract with People’s Self Help Housing for an after-school program. The summary explicitly states the program includes “social-emotional learning” alongside academic support, funded by state Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELOP) money.
Recommended Action Plan

ASK THE HARD QUESTIONS: Email the Board of Education regarding Item XIII.A: ‘What specific SEL curriculum will be used in the People’s Self Help Housing after-school program? Parents must be able to review all materials and have a clear opt-out process before this contract is approved.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: $230,468.80
