Related to Procedures for Complaints Against Staff
Complaints Against Teachers Communication between the Community and the School ideally should be such that most complaints may be resolved through personal conferences at the School level. Various avenues of contact between teacher, pupil, parent, principal and other appropriate staff personnel should be pursued before using the formal procedures outlined below. The following process shall not be used when allegations involve legal or criminal violations or allegations of misconduct towards a student, such as abuse or discrimination. Such allegations shall be investigated in accordance with board policy and in conjunction with the authorities, consistent with principles of due process. 1. The Complainant shall be given a copy of this Part II, Section J and be told that there are contractual requirements for the District to follow. 2. If such conferences do not lead to understanding and resolution of problems involved, a parent may pursue further action by submitting a complaint against a teacher, which must be submitted in writing to the principal of the school. The principal shall give a copy to the teacher. Likewise, the teacher may request in writing to the principal that such a written complaint must be filed or the matter shall be considered closed. The principal shall give a copy to the parent. 3. After a written complaint is filed, if requested by the complainant or the teacher, a meeting involving the teacher, the principal, and the complainant will be arranged as soon as possible to discuss the complaint. 4. If it is not resolved at that level to the satisfaction of the Complainant, the Complainant may appeal to the Superintendent. 5. If it is still unresolved to the satisfaction of the Complainant, the Complainant may appeal to the Board of Education.

Actions against Parties; Notification Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(a) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Representatives, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(b) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company.

No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 6 or Section 7 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
