Concerns & Complaints

Processes start with the person who has the complaint setting up a meeting with the employee or department staff to work out a resolution. The District has a formal complaint procedure. Please use the table below to address your complaint to proper person/department.

Please Note: Fremont Unified School District accepts any written communication as a Uniform Complaint (AR 1312.3) - no specific form is required; helpful information for the complaint could include: contact information, names, date and time of incident, location/school name, and as many details as possible. Please submit complaints to Principal, Student Support Services, and District compliance officer.

The Board prohibits any form of retaliation against any individual who reports or participates in the filing of a complaint, or investigates or participates in the investigation of a complaint or report alleging unlawful discrimination. Retaliation complaints shall be investigated and resolved in the same manner as a discrimination complaint.

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972

No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX) prohibits discrimination based on sex in education programs and activities in federally funded schools at all levels. 1-If any part of a school district or college receives any Federal funds for any purpose, all of the operations of the district or college are covered by Title IX. 2-Title IX protects students, employees, applicants for admission and employment, and other persons from all forms of sex discrimination, including discrimination based on gender identity or failure to conform to stereotypical notions of masculinity or femininity. All students (as well as other persons) at recipient institutions are protected by Title IX-regardless of their sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, part- or full-time status, disability, race, or national origin-in all aspects of a recipient’s educational programs and activities.
