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.
