Major Spending Bundles Storm Repair with Undisclosed Upgrades

📅 Scheduled Action

The board plans to approve $756,920 in spending for storm restoration. However, the agenda admits that ‘District-added improvements’ not covered by insurance are bundled into this total, hiding the true cost of the upgrades from taxpayers.

Response

INVESTIGATE: The ‘Summary of Loss’ attachment for Item 6 in the official agenda must be reviewed. Contact the District Office: ‘Before voting on Item 6, please publicly state the exact dollar amount for the “District-added improvements” that are not covered by insurance.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Upgrade Costs

School Health Council Appointments Made Behind Vague Title

📅 Scheduled Action

The board is appointing members to the School Health Advisory Council (SHAC), a body that influences health curriculum and policies. The list of proposed members is hidden in an attachment, preventing public review of who will be advising the district on sensitive student health issues.

Response

INVESTIGATE: Open the attachment for Item 7 in the Official Agenda to see the list of proposed SHAC members. Contact the District Office: ‘Parents must be the majority on the SHAC. Please publish the list of nominees and their qualifications before the vote on Item 7.’

💰 Impact: Politicized Health Curriculum
