GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE

Should a student believe a teacher, principal, or other school system employee has violated, failed to enforce, or misinterpreted a local school rule, school system regulation, or Board of Education policy, he/she will be expected to use the following procedure to present the grievance:

STEP 1

The student should first talk to the person whom the student feels is responsible. A telephone call is acceptable but face-to-face contact is best. The student should contact this person within a 24 hour period and state the grievance in a calm manner and listen carefully to the reply.

STEP 2

If the student believes that the problem is not resolved, he/she should ask for a conference with the principal within a 48 hour period. The principal will see the student within a 48 hour period. The student and the principal should work together to resolve the problem. If the student finds the solution not to be acceptable, he/she should so inform the principal. The principal will send the student a letter explaining why he/she disagrees with the student.

STEP 3

If the student wishes to pursue the grievance beyond the principal, he/she should call within 48 hours to the Assistant Superintendent of Administration, Union County Public Schools, at telephone 704-296-9898 and explain the problem. The Assistant Superintendent will discuss the problem with the student. He/she may ask the student to state his/her grievance to him/her in a letter. He/she will conduct a thorough investigation. He/she may ask the student and others to meet with him/her to discuss and, hopefully, resolve the matter. If the grievance cannot be resolved by the Assistant Superintendent to the satisfaction of all concerned, he/she will prepare a written report of his/her findings and recommendations for the Superintendent and send the student a copy of the report.

STEP 4

The Superintendent of Union County Public Schools will review the report. The Superintendent may ask for a conference with all parties involved. The Superintendent will, in writing, notify the student of his/her decision concerning the grievance within five (5) days.

STEP 5

If the student is not satisfied with the decision of the Superintendent, he/she may appeal to the Board of Education within ten days of receipt of the Superintendent’s letter. The student may call or write the Superintendent for an appointment with the Board. The student will be notified of the date, time, and place for the appeal to the Board. A complete record of the grievance will be sent to the Board. The record will describe the facts and positions of all parties involved. The student will have an opportunity to review the report and make changes if it does not accurately state his/her position before it goes to the Board. The hearing before the Board will be informal, and all parties will be given the opportunity to speak and be heard.

The Board will make a decision concerning the grievance.
