Taxpayer Bond Funds Tied to DEI Litmus Test for Contractors
A workshop on the new school bond (Item 3.A) reveals that all contractors—architects, builders, designers—will be formally scored on ‘Equity & Inclusion’ to win bids. This means taxpayer money will be used to reward companies based on their commitment to a political ideology, not just on getting the best quality and price for our schools.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY, NOT IDEOLOGICAL SCREENING: Speak at the workshop on Item 3.A and contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link). ‘Taxpayer bond money must be awarded based on merit, experience, and cost-effectiveness, not on a contractor’s commitment to a political ‘Equity & Inclusion’ agenda. Remove this ideological litmus test from all scoring rubrics.’
💰 Impact: Ideological Litmus Test for Contracts

District Restricts In-Person Public Comment
The district requires parents to show up in person, potentially an hour before the meeting starts, just to sign up to speak. Furthermore, total public comment on any single agenda item is capped at 20 minutes, which could silence dozens of parents on a controversial topic.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND YOUR RIGHT TO BE HEARD: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand they remove the 20-minute time limit per item and allow for remote or written public comment submission. ‘Parents’ schedules are not the district’s to command; your policies should encourage public participation, not create barriers.’
💰 Impact: Silencing Parent Voices

District Embeds “Equity” Ideology in Core Mission
The district’s official Vision and Core Values statements prominently feature the term ‘Equity’ and describe staff as ‘Equity-Centered.’ This language often serves as the foundation for policies that prioritize equal outcomes over equal opportunity and can lead to divisive, race-based programming in the classroom.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK THE BOARD TO DEFINE ‘EQUITY’: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask for a public, written definition of ‘Equity’ and how it differs from ‘Equality.’ ‘Parents need to know if the district’s definition of equity means providing equal opportunity or if it means engineering equal outcomes, which is not the school’s role.’
💰 Impact: Focus on Ideology, Not Academics
