📍 Drive to Sierra Sands Unified Office   📅 Thursday, September 17, 2026 to Calendar
📄 View Official Agenda
Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Sierra Sands Unified. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 10)
$78,750 Contract for ‘Whole Child’ and ‘Equity’ Training
📅 Scheduled Action
The board is set to approve a $78,750 contract with ISTE+ASCD, a known ideological vendor, for ‘professional learning.’ The attached proposal confirms this training is focused on Social Emotional Learning, ‘equitable practices,’ and the ‘Whole Child’ model, replacing academic focus with social engineering.
Recommended Action Plan

PACK THE ROOM: This is a critical vote. We need parents at the September 17th meeting to speak against Item 7.2. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link): ‘Vote NO on the $78,750 ISTE+ASCD contract. Our schools need to focus on academics, not expensive SEL and equity consultants.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: $78,750 (Equity Funds)
NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 7)
Public Comment Time Capped at 30 Minutes
📅 Scheduled Action
The board limits total public comment time on non-agenda items to 30 minutes at the beginning of the meeting. This rule can be used to silence parents and prevent the board from hearing widespread community concerns on emerging issues.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND YOUR VOICE BE HEARD: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand the board remove the 30-minute aggregate time limit on public comment referenced in Item 6.6. ‘Parents will not be silenced; arbitrary time limits that prevent the board from hearing from its constituents are unacceptable.’

💰 Taxpayer Impact: Suppressed Parental Voice
ALERT (LEVEL 4)
Social-Emotional Learning in After-School Program
📅 Scheduled Action
The district is approving a union agreement for the state-funded Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELOP). The program’s description explicitly includes ‘social, emotional’ development, potentially opening the door for SEL curriculum in after-school care.
Recommended Action Plan

INVESTIGATE: The Memorandum of Understanding for Item 9.1 was not attached to the public agenda. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand a copy of the MOU to verify what SEL content or training is mandated for this after-school program.

💰 Taxpayer Impact: SEL in After-School Care
