School Launches Telehealth Clinic for Students
A report from the Director of Student Support Services confirms the launch of “Hazel Health,” a telehealth service allowing students to see a medical provider and receive prescriptions at school without a parent present. This service, funded by the “Community Schools Grant,” creates a massive loophole for medical decisions to be made about your child without your knowledge or consent.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is an unacceptable violation of parental rights. Address the Board during public comment regarding the report in Item C.3. Demand an immediate suspension of the Hazel Health program and ask: ‘We do not co-parent with the government or its vendors. What is the explicit, opt-in parental consent process for every single Hazel Health interaction?’

Massive Student Data Sharing Agreement
The district is approving a “Data Sharing Memorandum of Understanding” to send a vast amount of confidential student data to the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office. The data includes demographics, discipline files, incident reports, absence summaries, and more, creating a permanent state-level dossier on your child without specific parental consent for this transfer.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This data transfer is a major privacy threat and is hidden on the consent agenda. Demand the board pull Consent Item E.22 for a full public discussion and roll-call vote. Email the Board: ‘Who is protecting our children’s data? Vote NO on Item E.22.’

School to Become Social Services Hub
The district is entering a multi-year agreement to create a “Full-Service Community School,” integrating outside social, health, and mental health services directly into the school. This model uses a “Multi-Tiered System of Support” (MTSS) to justify interventions and data collection on your child and family, partnering with agencies like Behavioral Health and the Department of Human Services, bypassing direct parental involvement.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This model replaces the school’s academic mission with a social services mission. Demand the Board pull Consent Item E.23 for a separate, recorded vote. Email the Board: ‘Parents, not the school, are the center of a child’s life. Vote NO on this government overreach.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Bypassing Parents

| HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 9) |

New ‘Ethnic Studies’ Course Approval
The board is set to approve a new “APEX Ethnic Studies” course focused on identity, power, and oppression. The course outline shows units on “Race and Identity,” “Group Conflict,” and “Understanding and Addressing Racism,” indicating a curriculum based on critical theories that can divide students by race and group identity rather than focusing on shared American values.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: This divisive course is being approved without discussion on the Consent Agenda. Email the Board and demand Item E.24 be pulled for a full presentation. Ask: ‘We want history, not activism. What is the full, day-by-day curriculum for this course and is it available for parental review?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Replacing Academics

Student Movement and Behavior Tracking Software
A report from the Dean of Student Support Services confirms the use of “Minga” software to track students’ hall passes, detentions, and school/event check-ins, and to serve as a virtual ID. This system collects a significant amount of data on student behavior and movement throughout the school day.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Email the Board regarding the report in Item C.5. Ask: ‘Who owns the student data collected by Minga? What is the data retention policy, and with which third parties is this data shared? Please provide the specific parental opt-out form for this tracking system.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Student Data Privacy

District Adopts Universal Free Meals Program (CEP)
The district is adopting the federal Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) to offer free meals to all students, which eliminates parental paperwork. While framed as a convenience, this automatically enrolls all students in a federal program, which can increase federal data collection on your family and reduce your oversight of what your children are eating at school.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK QUESTIONS: Email the Food Service Manager regarding the report in Item C.12. ‘What new data will be collected on our students under the CEP program, and who will it be shared with? Is there an opt-out for families who do not wish to participate in this federal program?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Federal Program Entanglement
