4. Students: The Fillmore Unified School district board policy provides a process for complaints alleging discrimination of a program or a
program’s failure to comply with state or federal law. The policy protects the privacy right’s of the complainant and prohibits retaliation for filing
a complaint. Complaints must be written on “Program Discrimination/Legal Violation Complaint Form” available from the Assistant
Superintendent and filed within six months of the incident or when it became known. Help in filling out the form will be provided if needed. All
other types of complaints, including complaints regarding personnel or instructional materials follow other board policies. The process for
registering other complaints is: 1) if the complaint concerns a teacher, first contact the teacher. 2) if the complaints are not resolved by the
teacher, contact the principal of the school, then the district superintendent, and finally the Board of Education. Complete copies of these
policies are available through the superintendent’s office. Thank you ……...John Wilber, Principal…..
