HOW TO FILE A TITLE IX COMPLAINT

  • Individuals who believe they have been discriminated against, in violation of Title IX, may file a complaint with the District or the Office for Civil Rights (OCR).  Title IX complaints may be filed using the District’s Uniform Complaint Procedures found within the following policy:

Time Requirement

The complaint must be initiated no later than six months from the date when the alleged discrimination, harassment, intimidation, or bullying occurred, or six months from the date when the complainant first obtained knowledge of the facts.  The Superintendent or designee, at the complainant’s written request, may extend the filing period for up to 90 days.

Investigation Procedure

Upon receipt of a complaint related to a potential Title IX violation, the District will ensure every allegation is investigated promptly, adequately, and impartially.  The District will take steps to protect complainants from retaliation and ensure all parties are treated fairly throughout the District’s investigation process.  The District’s procedure for investigating a Title IX complaint can be found at:
