Policy for Addressing Sexual Harassment

The Policy for Addressing Sexual Harassment outlines the school’s commitment to maintaining a learning and working environment that is free from sexual harassment, assault, or other forms of sexual misconduct. The policy defines sexual harassment, provides examples of prohibited behavior, and outlines the procedures for reporting, investigating, and resolving complaints. It may also address issues related to confidentiality, retaliation, and support services for victims. The policy applies to all members of the school community, including students, faculty, staff, and visitors, and covers behavior that occurs on school grounds, at school-sponsored events, or through school-related communication channels. The policy may include information about the school’s efforts to provide education and training on sexual harassment prevention and response, and to promote a culture of respect and consent. The purpose of the Policy for Addressing Sexual Harassment is to protect the safety, dignity, and well-being of all individuals, to hold perpetrators accountable for their actions, and to maintain a positive and productive educational environment.
