Student complaints and grievances regarding board policy or administrative regulation violations and other matters should be addressed to the student’s teacher or other member of the licensed personnel, other than administration, for resolution of the complaint. It is the goal of the board to resolve student complaints at the lowest administrative level.
If the complaint cannot be resolved by the teacher, the student may discuss the matter with the principal within five (5) days. If the matter cannot be resolved by the principal, the student may discuss it with the superintendent within ten (10) days after speaking with the principal.
If the matter is not satisfactorily resolved by the superintendent, the student may ask to have the matter placed on the board agenda of a regularly scheduled board meeting.
