Student Complaints and Grievances (Board Policy - JCE)
The Board realizes that there may be conditions in the school system that need improvement and that students should have some means to effectively express their concerns which will be considered and handled with fairness.
Student complaints and grievances shall be resolved through orderly processes and at the lowest possible level. However, the Board shall provide channels for eventual hearing, should circumstances dictate.
Complaints and grievances shall be approached in the following manner:
- The opportunity shall be provided any student or his/her parents to discuss with his/her teacher a decision or situation which he/she considers unjust or unfair;
- If the matter remains unresolved, the student or his/her parents or the teacher, may bring the matter to the principal’s attention for his/her consideration;
- If the matter remains unresolved, it may be brought to the Superintendent or a designee for his/her consideration; and
- Complaints that remain unresolved following any action of the Superintendent may be referred in writing to the Board. The Board’s decision, if it chooses to make one, shall be final.
The Superintendent shall annually appoint an Equity in Sports Coordinator whose responsibility is to coordinate efforts to comply with and carry out requirements in regard to Equity in Sports.
The Equity in Sports Coordinator shall investigate any complaints communicated to the school system in regard to Equity in Sports.
