Notice to Parents and Guardians Complaint Rights.
To Parents and Guardians:
Pursuant to California Education Code section 35186, you are hereby notified that:
- There should be sufficient textbooks and instructional materials. That means each pupil, including English learners, must have a textbook or instructional materials, or both, to use in the class and to take home to complete required homework assignments.
- School facilities must be clean, safe, and maintained in good repair.
- Students will be taught by qualified teachers. Criteria for lack of qualified teachers are that:
- the student attends a class or classes for which no permanent teacher is assigned; or
- the student attends a school in which more than 20% of teachers do not have full, non-emergency teaching credentials; or
- the student is an English Language Learner (ELL) and is assigned a teacher who has not been specially qualified by the State to teach ELL students.
A complaint form may be obtained at the school office, district office or downloaded from the District’s website.
You may also download a copy of the California Department of Education complaint form from the CDE website.
