The Burlington Area School District does not discriminate on the basis of sex (including sexual orientation or gender identity), in its education programs or activities, and is required by Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972, and its implementing regulations, not to discriminate in such a manner. For more information about the district's policy on Nondiscrimination on the basis of sex in education programs or activities, please see Board Policy #2266.
The District’s Title IX Coordinator, Chris Weins, Director of Pupil Services (209 Wainwright Avenue, Burlington, WI 53105, 262-763-0210), along with any investigator(s), decision-maker(s), or person(s) designated to facilitate an informal resolution process, must receive training on:
- the definition of sexual harassment (as that term is used in this policy);
- the scope of the District’s education program or activity;
- how to conduct an investigation and implement the grievance process, appeals, and informal resolution processes, as applicable; and
- how to serve impartially, including by avoiding prejudgment of the facts at issue, conflicts of interests, and bias.
All school personnel are required to participate in Title IX Training. The Title IX training modules were developed by the National Center on Safe Supportive Learning Environments, funded by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Healthy Students.
