Over the past 11 months District Deeds has implemented our 2023 San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) Honesty, Accountability and Transparency (HAT Trick) Resolution.
In January through June, 2023 we published the SDUSD HAT Trick Handbook.
In June through August, 2023 we published our District Deeds Summer Edition where we provided relevant “summer reading” articles and commentary during the sub par, calendar reduced, miserable excuse for “summer school” from the SDUSD.
This autumn, 2023 we launched the ongoing “Speak Your Truth” initiative where ALL SDUSD Stakeholders are able to embrace the role of “Whistleblower” and share their damaging and corrupt SDUSD education/employment experiences with ALL other SDUSD Stakeholders and Readers.
Last week on November 19, 2023, we introduced our fourth and final San Diego Unified School District HAT Trick initiative…the HAT Trick Survey.
Here is a brief description from that post describing the opportunity for ALL SDUSD Stakeholders to give their opinion and A – F grade of the current state of SDUSD Honesty, Accountability and Transparency:
To accomplish this HAT Trick Survey task we will be using the following Four Step process to launch the new initiative:
Step 1: Create two identical Surveys asking recipients the following six questions:
- What is your current perception/definition of “HONESTY” in the San Diego Unified School District?
- What is your recommendation for improved “HONESTY” in the San Diego Unified School District?
- What is your current perception/definition of “ACCOUNTABILITY” in the San Diego Unified School District?
- What is your recommendation for improved “ACCOUNTABILITY” in the San Diego Unified School District?
- What is your current perception/definition of “TRANSPARENCY” in the San Diego Unified School District?
- What is your recommendation for improved “TRANSPARENCY” in the San Diego Unified School District?
Along with these 6 questions the HAT Trick survey provides an opportunity to rate the SDUSD using an A through F grade for the current status of SDUSD Honesty, Accountability and Transparency.
Step 2: Distribute Identical Surveys
- Identical Survey 1 will be sent to District Deeds contacts (Group 1) that have contributed/supported the full investigation of the corrupt SDUSD in the past.
- Identical Survey 2 will be provided to any stakeholders/readers (Group 2) that send a “Request to be Surveyed” to districtdeeds@gmail.com
Step 3: Gather the answers and results from each survey response and present them in posts through the end of the 2023 and beyond.
Step 4: Archive cumulative results including grades and conclusions and provide next steps in the final District Deeds Post of 2023 on New Years Eve, Sunday, December 31, 2023 to form the NEW District Deeds 2024 New Year Resolution.
District Deeds will be encouraging our readers to participate in the survey via short posts and social media messages over the final weeks of 2023.
Be sure to request your Survey at districtdeeds@gmail.com TODAY!!!
District Deeds has received many responses for this Survey and, for the next 3 or 4 weeks (depending on the ongoing response), we will be posting the most relevant and timely responses and results to our readers.
We understand that many SDUSD Stakeholders, both employees and families fear retribution from the corrupt Board of Education and senior leadership so we are protecting our survey respondents with a complete cloak of anonymity for any and all surveys and other types of communication we have with them. Here is our ALERT regarding that issue from last week:
DISTRICT DEEDS ALERT: ALL contributions from SDUSD Stakeholders are covered with COMPLETE CONFIDENTIALITY. No name or identity will be revealed in any District Deeds posts without the full approval of the contributor who has full control though both the new survey and the ongoing “Speak Your Truth” initiative to remain COMPLETELY anonymous in ALL posts referring to their contribution.
Here are three of the responses from last week.
SURVEY RESULT 1: 3 F’S
The first is from Mr. David Page, a parent in the SDUSD starting from 1986 though today (37 years as a SDUSD parent of 7 children and 10 grandchildren with currently one child and 5 grandkids attending SDUSD schools}, a member of over 15 SDUSD School Site Councils (SSC’s) and who also served as Chair of the SDUSD District Advisory Council on Compensatory Education (DAC) from 1996 through 2012 (17 years).

SURVEY RESULT 2: 3 F’S
Here is another survey from a current SDUSD Teacher with decades of experience:
SURVEY RESULT 3: 3 F’S
And here is a survey from an employee staff member, also with decades of experience in the SDUSD:
District Deeds Translation:
The 3 survey responses speak for themselves. Here is the current grade given to the SDUSD Board of Education and Senior Leadership for the District Deeds HAT Trick:
SDUSD Honesty = “F”
SDUSD Accountability = “F”
SDUSD Transparency = “F”
These responses are typical of the total responses we received for this survey. We will continue to post more responses from SDUSD Stakeholders on this survey in the coming weeks prior to January 1, 2024.
It is not too late for YOU, our readers, to submit YOUR responses to the District Deeds HAT Trick Survey! Here are the instructions to do so as we said earlier in this post and last week:
- Identical Survey 2 will be provided to any stakeholders/readers (Group 2) that send a “Request to be Surveyed” to districtdeeds@gmail.com
It is also never too late to provide your SDUSD reality to ALL District Deeds Readers through our “Speak Your Truth” initiative:
District Deeds “Speak Your Truth” Information
On August 27, 2023 we launched a new initiative in our post titled “2023/2024 – District Deeds 10th School Year…NEW “Speak Your Truth” Posting Opportunity for ALL SDUSD Stakeholders!!!” where we asked for the real life experiences of San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) Parents, Teachers, Students, Staff and Taxpayers.
Here is the “Speak Your Truth” initiative definition from that post:
“Speak Your Truth” CONTINUES to inspire honesty and bravery with SDUSD Teachers, Staff, Parents and Students and given us additional insight into the deep fear of SDUSD retribution by employees in the toxic SDUSD work environment.
THANK YOU to ALL the brave SDUSD Stakeholders who continue to share their stories with us and provide deep insights into the ongoing SDUSD dysfunctional work and education environment.
Now for our Quote of the Week dedicated to those brave SDUSD Stakeholders above who actually took action to expose the total lack of Honesty, Accountability and Transparency in the corrupt SDUSD and those who will decide to build up their courage in the coming weeks to request and respond to the HAT Trick Survey and/or use the “Speak Your Truth” initiative to reach out to us at districtdeeds@gmail.com to share their perspective.
THANK YOU!
