Committee reviews revisions to anti-discrimination and grievance policy after state audit
Summary
Staff presented revisions to policy P6631 to address Department of Education audit findings about CTE enrollment disparities; legal counsel reviewed the edits and the committee approved the first reading of the updated policy.
District staff told the committee revisions to policy P6631 (anti-discrimination/anti-harassment and grievance procedure) were prompted by a Department of Education audit focused on disparities in CTE program enrollment. Staff said the audit largely affirmed compliance but required clearer grievance language.
An unidentified staff member said the district "checked pretty much every box" during the audit and that the updated policy was reviewed by the district's legal team to ensure it met state requirements. Dr. Dave Alba was identified as the Title IX contact during questions about procedure.
The committee approved the first reading of the revised policy P6631. The motion for first reading was made by Jill Kalipai and seconded by Sylvia Saint Pierre; the committee approved by voice vote. Staff said passing this revision closes the final component of the audit follow‑up and will align local procedure with Department of Education expectations.
Next steps: the revised policy will return for subsequent readings as required by district policy.
