The Board recognizes that situations of concern to parents/guardians or the public may arise in the
operation of the district. Such concerns are best resolved by addressing them at the level where the
concern originated through communication with the appropriate staff members. The administration
has developed procedures for addressing those issues, copies of which are available at each building.
Any concern regarding federal programs administered by the Missouri Department of Elementary
and Secondary Education (DESE) may also be appealed to DESE or the United States Department
of Education as permitted or required by law. Allegations of discrimination or harassment by
members of the public shall be investigated pursuant to Board policy ACA.
If a complaint has been made and appealed in accordance with administrative procedures, the
parent/guardian or member of the public may appeal the issue to the Board by submitting a written
request to the superintendent or the secretary of the Board. The Board will address the complaint
in an appropriate and timely manner.
