Support immediate opt-out of iPads for Kindergarten with end goal of eliminating iPads and prioritizing play-based and paper-based instruction, with exceptions only for documented IEP/504 accommodations.

Support immediate opt-out of 1:1 devices for grades 1 - 5 with end goal of eliminating 1:1 devices unless we can prove meaningful benefits of iReady and any other digital curriculum. Prioritize development of curriculum focused on traditional learning methods, i.e. paper and pencil, that align with current research on learning and child development; use shared device model only as needed for practice and completion of state mandated testing.

Reduce reliance on 1:1 devices in classrooms for grades 6 - 8 with an opt-in model for take-home devices. Non-digital homework preferred. Restrictions should follow the device home. Parents can add additional guardrails to devices for after school use.

Adopt clear, consistent usage policies for school devices. Right now, rules around when and how devices are used vary by classroom and teacher. We're asking for a single, publicly posted common sense policy that applies district-wide. This should include setting daily and weekly time limits on in school usage by grade, monitored and enforced by the district. See here for full list of policies to evaluate.

Remove/block all non-curricular sites/apps including general access to YouTube. Schools need to be accountable for ensuring proper guardrails are implemented to prevent misuse and abuse both inside classrooms and for use at home. See here for full list of common sense guardrails to evaluate.  

Evaluate privacy concerns related to curricular app platforms and the packaging/selling of student-generated data to establish a clear parental consent policy

Pause use of all AI tools for K - 8 including Magic School until we have reviewed the need for this and aligned on clear AI policies. Block embedded AI search tools (ie Gemini AI.)

Launch anonymous teacher surveys in order to honest feedback on integration of technology in the classrooms.

Implement a task force comprised of elected members, community advocates, and invested parents who will regularly evaluate tech policies and assess value of proposed and in-use ed-tech apps.
