Heads up! We have scanned the upcoming agenda for SPRINGVILLE-GRIFFITH INSTITUTE CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT. We found 4 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
Final Vote on Secret Student Data Privacy Policy
The Board is holding a final vote on five policies under Item 7C1, including the critical ‘Policy 5676, Privacy and Security for Student Data.’ The actual text of this policy was not included in the provided documents, leaving parents in the dark about potential changes to how their children’s personal information is collected, stored, and shared with outside vendors.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE & DEMAND DELAY: This is a final vote. Immediately open ‘Attachment 7C1’ on the official agenda (linked above). If Policy 5676 allows for broad data sharing or weakens parental consent, email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Table the vote on Item 7C1, specifically Policy 5676. Parents have not had time to review the final text of a policy that impacts every child’s privacy.’
💰 Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

Special Ed Placements Hidden in Bulk Vote
The board is voting on recommendations for Special Education placements for 24 students (items 7A2a and 7A2b) as part of a ‘Consensus’ block vote. The attachments detailing these placements are not included in the public packet, preventing parental review of what could be significant service changes for vulnerable children.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the files attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether they contain sensitive policy changes. Email the Board (contact info on district website): ‘Please pull items 7A2a and 7A2b from the consent agenda. The details of special education placements should not be hidden in bulk votes without public review of the recommendations.’
💰 Impact: Lack of Transparency

| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Pre-Registration Required to Address the Board
Under Item 4, the district requires parents to fill out a form with personal information and a description of their topic before they are allowed to speak during public comment. This rule can intimidate parents and allows the board to know and prepare for criticism in advance, chilling spontaneous speech and creating a barrier for busy parents.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK THE BOARD: Contact the Board of Education (see the Official Agenda link) and ask them to revise Policy 1510. ‘Please remove the pre-registration requirement for public comment to ensure all parents, including those who make a last-minute decision to speak, have their voices heard.’
💰 Impact: Chilling Effect on Speech

| ALERT (LEVEL 2) |

School-Sanctioned GSA Club Fundraiser
The agenda’s consent items (7A2c) include approval for a fundraiser by the High School’s GSA (Gender and Sexuality Alliance) club. This action normalizes the presence of clubs focused on sexual orientation and gender identity within the school environment, which many parents feel is inappropriate for a K-12 setting.
Recommended Action Plan
Monitor: This confirms the presence of a GSA club. Track for future scope creep into curriculum or school-wide events; no immediate action required on this fundraiser.
💰 Impact: Normalizing Gender Ideology
