Grievance Procedures
Student, Parent, and Community Grievances:
The Board is committed to resolving concerns efficiently and encourages parents, students, and community members to address issues at the lowest possible administrative level. The most effective first step is always to discuss your concern directly with the principal or the appropriate administrator who has the authority to act on the matter. Please express concerns as soon as possible to facilitate a swift, informal resolution.
If your concern is not fully resolved after discussion with the administrator, the formal grievance process is available, as detailed in Policy FNG (Local). This process begins with a formal filing at the informal stage and then moves to Level I. If the grievance remains unresolved to your satisfaction, an appeal to Level I and any subsequent level may be submitted.
Please use the appropriate required forms when initiating each stage of the formal complaint process.
