STUDENT COMPLAINTS AND GRIEVANCES
The Rapides Parish School Board, recognizing that problems may arise in schools, shall require student concerns, complaints or grievances to be registered with the school principal or designee. If concerns of students cannot be resolved informally, then, complaints shall be initiated in writing, dated, and signed by the complainant.
For the discussion and consideration of the grievance, any student or group of students should request in writing a meeting time and place of the school principal. One faculty member or other designated representative may be present at such meeting. Such time and place will be designated immediately upon receipt of the written request.
If a grievance is not satisfactorily resolved after meeting with the principal, a student or group of students shall follow the procedures outlined in policy GAE, Non-Title IX Complaints and Grievances, for further consideration of their grievance.
