District Creates DEI-Style ‘Belonging’ Award
The district is presenting a “Be Seen, Be Heard, Belong Award.” The award criteria uses ideological language like “fostering inclusion,” “elevate diverse perspectives,” and strengthening “culture and climate,” which are common euphemisms for a DEI/SEL agenda. This shifts the district’s focus from academic merit to subjective social metrics.
Recommended Action Plan
Email the Board of Trustees (see official agenda for contact info): ‘What are the specific, objective criteria for the ‘Be Seen, Be Heard, Belong’ award? Our district’s highest honors should be reserved for measurable academic achievement, not subjective social engineering.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Focus on Ideology, Not Academics

Vague ‘Personal Development’ Courses Up for Renewal
The board is voting to re-approve a list of local courses, including “Personal Development” for grades 5-8. This is a common Trojan horse for introducing Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum without parental oversight.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Board (see official agenda for contact info): ‘Before re-approving the ‘Personal Development’ courses under item E.1, please provide the full curriculum and all teaching materials for public review. Parents have a right to know what is being taught under this vague title.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Hidden SEL Curriculum

SEL Concept ‘Self-Awareness’ Added to Middle School Course
A proposed new 6th-grade course, “Introduction to Career Clusters,” explicitly includes teaching “self-awareness.” Self-awareness is one of the five core competencies of the controversial CASEL/SEL framework, embedding social-emotional programming into career and technical education.
Recommended Action Plan
ASK THE QUESTION: Contact the Board (see official agenda for contact info): ‘Regarding the proposed 6th-grade course in item E.2, what specific curriculum will be used to teach ‘self-awareness,’ and is it based on the CASEL framework? This sounds like SEL, not career prep.’

District Recognizes Academic Excellence
The board is publicly recognizing numerous students by name for achieving perfect scores on their SC READY state assessments in Math, ELA, and Science. This is a positive action that places the focus squarely on academic achievement and excellence.
How to Lock It In
ATTEND & AMPLIFY: Show up to the meeting to applaud these students and thank the Board for prioritizing and celebrating academic achievement. This reinforces the community’s expectation that academics come first.
