Title IX: Gender Equity Notification

Title IX: Gender Equity Notification

Title IX is a federal law that was passed in 1972 to ensure that male and female students and employees in educational settings are treated equally and fairly. It protects against discrimination based on sex (including sexual harassment). In addition, Title IX protects transgender students and students who do not conform to sex stereotypes. State law also prohibits discrimination based on gender (sex), gender expression, gender identity, and sexual orientation. The preamble to Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 states that: 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 requires that each school district have at least one person designated as the Title IX Coordinator. Please see coordinator contact information below.
 
Roseville Joint Union High School District (RJUHSD) shall implement specific and continuing steps to notify applicants for admission and employment, students and parents of elementary and secondary school students, employees, sources of referral of applicants for admission and employment, and all unions or professional organizations holding collective bargaining or professional agreements with RJUHSD, that it does not discriminate on the basis of sex in the educational program or activity which it operates, and that it is required by Title IX and this part not to discriminate in such a manner.

Title IX Complaint Procedures:

A student, parent, guardian, employee, individual, or organization may file a Title IX complaint using the District's Uniform Complaint Procedure (UCP) process by sending a complaint to the Title IX Coordinators (listed above).
 
The UCP information, including the ability to access District Board Policy/Administrative Regulation 1312.3, is available on our UCP page and the complaint form is available to download by clicking the link on that page.  Other acceptable forms of complaint include handwritten letters. If you need assistance putting your complaint in writing, please contact the Title IX Coordinators.  You may file a complaint anonymously, but the District's ability to investigate and respond may be limited by a lack of information.
