Non-Discrimination Policy

Piedmont Unified School District programs, activities, and practices shall be free from discrimination based on actual or perceived race, color, ancestry, immigration status, national origin, ethnic group identification, age, religion, marital or parental status, physical or mental disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, or gender expression; or on the basis of a person’s association with a person or group with one or more of these actual or perceived characteristics. The Board prohibits discrimination in any district education program or activity including admission and employment, and inquiries about the application of Title IX to students may be referred to the District’s Title IX Coordinator, to the Superintendent's Office, or both.

District Contact

Every school district that receives federal funding is required to designate and/or adequately train at least one employee to coordinate the recipient’s Title IX responsibilities.  Title IX regulations also require the name and contact information of each Title IX Coordinator be made public by the educational institution. The Piedmont Unified School District affirms its commitment to equality of opportunity for all individuals. This commitment requires that no discrimination shall occur regarding admission or access to, or treatment or employment in, any program and activity on the basis of age, race, color, national or ethnic origin, ancestry, citizenship, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, medical condition, religion, or marital status.
