    HOW TO RESOLVE A COMPLAINT

     
    The first step in resolving a complaint is to speak with the staff involved and/or the administrator of the school site.  If there are issues that cannot be resolved there or if the issue is very serious, a more formal process may be followed.  Information about how to file complaints can be found in Board policy 4119.11-4319.12, 5141.4, and AR 5147.  Board policies are accessible through the Board of Education section of this website.

    A uniform complaint is a written statement alleging discrimination, harassment, or a violation of a federal or state law or regulation.  A complaint must be filed by way of the Uniform Complaint Procedures (UCP) as written in the California Code of Regulations, Title 5, Sections 4600-4687.  Please download and complete a complaint form.  Please check the "uniform complaint" box on the form.

    A Williams complaint refers to insufficient instructional materials, to an emergency or urgent facility condition that poses a threat to the health and safety of pupils, or to teacher mis-assignment or vacancy.  This type of complaint may be filed anonymously.  To file this type of complaint, please download and complete a Williams complaint form.
