| 🚩Watchlist (LEVEL 6) |
|
School Improvement Plans Approved Without Public Review
The board is set to approve the official Campus and District Improvement Plans, but the documents are not attached for public review. These plans often contain mandates for controversial programs like Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) or Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) without being explicitly named on the agenda.
Response
INVESTIGATE: Contact the Sunnyvale ISD Board (see district website for contact info): ‘Before you vote on Item IX, the Campus and District Improvement Plans must be posted publicly for parent review. We need to see what’s in these plans before they are approved.’
💰 Impact: Politicized Classrooms

Potential for ESG in New Investment Policies
The board will vote to adopt new investment strategies for the district’s portfolio. This is an opportunity for politically-motivated criteria like ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) to be inserted, which can prioritize social agendas over the best financial return for taxpayers.
Response
DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Sunnyvale ISD Board (see district website for contact info): ‘Regarding Item VII, please publish the proposed investment policy and strategies online before the vote. Taxpayers must be able to verify that the district’s sole investment criterion is maximizing fiduciary return, not advancing a political agenda.’
💰 Impact: Politicized Investments

Undisclosed Furniture Purchase on Consent Agenda
The board plans to approve a furniture purchase for two different buildings under the consent agenda, which bundles items for a single vote without discussion. The cost to taxpayers is not disclosed in the agenda, preventing public scrutiny of a potentially large expenditure.
Response
DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Sunnyvale ISD Board (see district website for contact info): ‘I request that Item V.G, the furniture purchase, be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and a roll-call vote. Taxpayers deserve to know the cost before you approve it.’
💰 Impact: Undisclosed
