District Weakens Special Education Parental Rights
The Board is adopting state special education policies but is deleting key provisions under Item 9.B. These changes could make it harder for parents to get an independent evaluation for their child at public expense and may reduce services for students during extended breaks or short-term suspensions.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND ANSWERS: Item 9.B removes protections for special needs students and their parents. Email Superintendent Necole Ast at nast@woodridge.k12.oh.us: ‘Regarding Item 9.B, please explain to the public why the district is deleting language that protects a parent’s right to an independent evaluation and encourages services for students during suspensions. The Board must not weaken supports for our most vulnerable students.’
💰 Impact: Reduced SPED Services

District May Cut Busing for Some Students
The board is voting on a resolution to declare transportation ‘impractical’ for a list of unnamed students attending unnamed schools. This would replace their bus service with a cash stipend, potentially creating a major financial and logistical burden for affected families. The list of affected students was not included in the public agenda packet.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The resolution in Item 9.A references an ‘attached list’ of students who will lose bus service, but the file is not in the public packet. Email Superintendent Necole Ast at nast@woodridge.k12.oh.us: ‘Before the Board votes on Item 9.A, please publicly release the list of students and schools that will be affected by the determination of transportation impracticality.’
💰 Impact: Loss of Bus Service

Recommended Action Plan
ASK FOR DETAILS: Email Treasurer Thomas Morehouse at tmorehouse@woodridge.k12.oh.us: ‘Regarding Purchase Order #142660 in Item 10.A, what specific services or programs will the Summit County ESC provide for this $9,544.74 payment? Parents deserve to know how our money is being spent.’
💰 Impact: $9,544.74
