Common use of Student Reports Clause in Contracts

Student Reports. The district encourages any adult who witnesses sexual harassment to intervene on the victim's behalf and immediately report the harassing conduct. The district does not, however, require any person to directly confront the harasser. Any student who believes that they are a sexual harassment victim, or who knows of conduct that may constitute sexual harassment should report the alleged acts to a teacher, counselor, principal, or designated District Compliance Officer. The report may be verbal or written. Using a formal reporting form is not required. If a student wants to use a form, one is available from the school office, school library, counseling office, and the District Compliance Officer. Any teacher or counselor to who alleged sexual harassment is reported shall immediately notify the school principal of the alleged acts, or if the complaint involves the principal, immediately notify the District Compliance Officer. The principal shall immediately forward written reports to the District Compliance Officer. If the principal receives a verbal report, the principal shall immediately notify the District Compliance Officer and, as soon as possible, forward a written report to the District Compliance Officer. The report shall not be screened or investigated before it is forwarded to the District Compliance Officer. Failure to forward any sexual harassment report or complaint shall result in disciplinary action.
