STUDENT COMPLAINTS AND GRIEVANCES

The Livingston Parish School Board, recognizing that problems may arise in schools, shall require student concerns, complaints or grievances to be registered with the school principal or designee. If concerns of students cannot be resolved informally, a written complaint shall be initiated, dated and signed by the complainant, and submitted to the principal.

For the discussion and consideration of the grievance, any student or group of students should request in writing a meeting time and place of the school principal. One faculty member or other designated representative may be present at such meeting. Such time and place will be designated upon receipt of the written request.

If a grievance is not satisfactorily resolved after meeting with the principal, a student or group of students shall follow the procedures outlined in policy GAE, Complaints and Grievances, for further consideration of their grievance.
