πŸ“„ View Official Agenda
Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Woodland CCSD 50. We found 3 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8)
Final Vote on Undisclosed FY27 Budget
πŸ“… Scheduled Action
The board is scheduled for a final vote to approve the entire FY27 budget. This multi-million dollar document dictates all district spending for the next year, but the actual budget file was not included in the agenda packet, preventing public review for hidden ideological spending.
Recommended Action Plan

INVESTIGATE: The full FY27 Budget document must be available on the district website. Download it and search for vendors like Panorama, CASEL, or Second Step, and for line items related to ‘DEI,’ ‘equity,’ ‘SEL,’ or ‘consultants.’ Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and demand the Board discuss any such items publicly before the final vote on Item X.D.

πŸ’° Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Spending Priorities
NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6)
Board Considers Taking Positions on State Legislation
πŸ“… Scheduled Action
The board is reviewing a survey from a legislative lobbying group (“ED-Red”) and hearing from its own Resolutions Committee. This indicates the district may use taxpayer resources and its official position to lobby for or against state-level bills that could impact parental rights.
Recommended Action Plan

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board of Education (see the Official Agenda link for contact info). Ask: ‘Regarding items XII.B.1 and XII.B.2, what specific legislative initiatives are being considered? Will the public have an opportunity to review and comment on any proposed resolutions before the Board takes an official position on state legislation?’

πŸ’° Taxpayer Impact: Taxpayer-Funded Lobbying
MONITOR (LEVEL 5)
Discussion Opens on New County-Wide Sales Tax
πŸ“… Scheduled Action
The board is beginning discussions on a Lake County Facilities Sales Tax. While facility upgrades can be necessary, these tax initiatives must be watched closely to ensure they are not bundled with controversial projects or rushed onto low-turnout ballots to avoid voter scrutiny.
Recommended Action Plan

MONITOR & ENGAGE: This is the start of a conversation about a new tax. Contact the Board of Education (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) and ask: ‘Regarding Item XI.C, what is the timeline for this sales tax discussion, and what opportunities will there be for public input before any decision is made to place this on a ballot?’
