• Formal Complaint Process

    Formal Complaint Process

    If an informal resolution is unable to be reached, or if emergency removal was neccessary, then the Formal Complaint Process is initiated.  The process will go as follows - 

    • The Title IX Coordinator assigns the case to the district Investigator.  The investigator will likely be a non-bias district administrator.
    • The investigator will then begin to analyze the case.  The Title IX Coordinator will monitor these efforts.
    • Once the investigation is complete, the investigator will give all information and a recommendation to the chosen Decision-Maker.  The decision-maker will likely be a non-bias district administrator.
    • Once the Decision-Maker has made the final judgment, they will notify all parties of the decision.
    • If either parties disagree with the final judgment, then they have a right to appeal.
    • A formal appeal has to be submitted within 5 school-business days.  The appeal will be submitted to a chosen Appeal Officer, likely the Superintendent.
    • The Appeal Officer will then review the appeal and issue a written decision within 10 school-business days.
