4 Educational Equity Statement The Des Moines Independent Community School District does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, gender, disability, religion, creed, age (for employment), marital status (for programs), sexual orientation, gender identity and socioeconomic status (for programs) in its educational programs and its employment practices. There is a grievance procedure for processing complaints of discrimination. If you have questions or a grievance related to this policy, please contact the district s Equity Coordinator Patricia Lantz, General Counsel, 901 Walnut Street, Des Moines, IA 50309; phone: ; patricia.lantz@dmps.k12.ia.us. In addition, the District prohibits hostile work and learning environment harassment toward employees or students that are not allegations of discrimination. Complaints of hostile work or learning environment harassment may be filed with Amanda Easton, Human Resources Investigations Specialist, at 901 Walnut Street, Des Moines, Iowa 50309, (515) The district is committed to maintaining a learning and working environment free of any form of sexual harassment toward personnel and students on school grounds, on school time, at a school-sponsored activity or in a school-related context. Complaints of sexual harassment filed against students and complaints of sexual harassment filed against employees or adults may be filed with Amanda Easton at Complaint Procedure This complaint procedure has been developed to handle complaints of discrimination, harassment, or sexual harassment. Employees, applicants for employment, parents, students, and volunteers can file a complaint. Briefly, the complaint procedure includes the following steps: Complainants may talk to their building principal or immediate supervisor to try to resolve the problem informally. If the complaint is based upon the conduct of the Complainant s principal or immediate supervisor, the Complainant may contact that person s immediate supervisor. Complaints should be reported as soon as possible after the event giving rise to the complaint. If the Complainant prefers to proceed with a formal complaint, or if the matter has not been informally resolved, he or she may file a complaint with the District Compliance Officer or the Human Resources Investigations Specialist based on the allegation. Formal complaints should be filed by the Complainant within 180 days after the event giving rise to the complaint or it is determined the complaint cannot be informally resolved. Within 10 working days, the appropriate investigator will begin the investigation. An investigation will include taking a written statement from the Complainant, the Respondent(s) named in the complaint, and those witnesses who have been identified who have relevant information pertaining to the complaint. Relevant documentation will also be collected and considered. During the investigation, a Respondent may elect to have a union representative, friend, counsel or any other individual present during interviews and subsequent meetings. Within 30 working days, the investigator shall complete the investigation and issue a written report making findings with respect to the individual allegations set out in the complaint and rendering an ultimate finding as to whether the greater weight of the evidence, based on the entire record, indicates the District s policies have been violated. Under some circumstances, when many individuals are involved in the investigation or an extensive legal review must be done, the investigator will inform the Complainant of the expected date of completion beyond the 30 working days. The District prohibits retaliation against an individual for filing a complaint. Any individual intentionally providing false information in a complaint investigation may be subject to disciplinary action. DMPS High School Course Catalog Page 3
5 In the event the investigator finds: A. No violation of District policy, the findings will be shared by the investigator with the Complainant and the Respondent. B. A violation of the District s policies or no violation of the District s policies but other inappropriate behavior on the part of the Respondent, the findings will be reviewed: By the investigator with the Complainant and the Respondent; and By the investigator and Respondent s principal or the immediate supervisor, the director responsible for Respondent, and a representative of Human Resources Management. The Human Resources representative will inform the Respondent of any decision regarding disciplinary action If disciplinary action is warranted, documentation of the disciplinary action will be placed in the employee s file or the student s file. All other information regarding the case will be kept in confidential files. Any disciplinary consequences will be kept confidential. The District has no jurisdiction to take disciplinary action over parents and volunteers. However, steps will be taken to ensure individuals do not continue to violate nondiscrimination policies on district property, school-related activities. The complaint will be closed after the investigator has provided the information to the Complainant and the Respondent unless, within ten days of receipt of the final investigative report, either side files a written appeal to the superintendent setting out the reason(s) why they believe the decision should not stand. In the event of an appeal, the Superintendent/designee shall review the written record and may meet with the appealing party. The Superintendent/designee may affirm, reverse, modify or remand the matter for further proceedings and shall, within twenty (20) days of the written appeal, confirm this decision in writing to the appealing party. Except in the event of a termination of a certified employee, the Superintendent s/designee s decision shall be final. A parent or guardian who disagrees with the school district s decision regarding a student s identification, evaluation or educational placement of program accommodations under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 has a right to an impartial, third party hearing. They may contact Shelly Bosovich, 504 Coordinator, 901 Walnut Street, Des Moines, Iowa or call to make the arrangements. The District encourages individuals to use the internal complaint procedure. However the Complainant may seek legal advice of his or her choosing or file a formal complaint with the Des Moines Human Rights Commission, Iowa Civil Rights Commission, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or other agencies. If the Complainant seeks other avenues of redress, the District may choose not to conduct its internal complaint procedures.
