Non-Discrimination and Anti-Harassment in the District
Required sample policy 3420, Non-Discrimination and Anti-Harassment in the District, was revised in light of changes to non-discrimination and anti-harassment laws and regulations including, specifically, revisions to the implementing regulations for Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972. This policy provides a general approach to addressing complaints of discrimination and/or harassment over which a district would have jurisdiction and applies to the dealings between or among the following parties on school property and at school functions: students; employees; applicants for employment; paid or unpaid interns; anyone who is (or is employed by) a contractor, subcontractor, vendor, consultant, or other person providing services pursuant to a contract in the workplace; volunteers; and visitors or other third parties. In revising the policy, Policy Services sought to create consistency between it and other policies related to non-discrimination and anti-harassment.
