Reporting of Data and Records

The District shall report summarized data on the nature and resolution of all complaints, pursuant to Williams and/or Valenzuela vs. The State of California, on a quarterly basis to the County Superintendent of Schools and the Governing Board of the school district. The summaries shall be publicly reported on a quarterly basis at a regularly scheduled meeting of the Governing Board of the school district. The report shall include the number of complaints by general subject area with the number of resolved and unresolved complaints. Complaints and responses shall be available as public record.

The Superintendent or designee shall ensure that the district’s complaint form contains a space to indicate whether the complainant desires a response to his/her complaint and specifies the location for filing a complaint. A complainant may add as much text to explain the complaint as he/she wishes. However, complainants need not use the district’s Williams complaint form in order to file a complaint.

The Superintendent or designee shall ensure that a notice is posted in each classroom in each school containing the components specified in Education Code 35186.
