EQUAL OPPORTUNITY 0100
In the performance of its duties, the Board will safeguard the Constitutional rights and dignity of all persons who come within its jurisdiction and will implement the goals of equal educational opportunity and equal employment opportunity in all of its policy determinations and actions.
The School District does not discriminate in employment or in the education programs and activities which it operates on the basis of sex, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, religion, race or disability in violation of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, Title VI and VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. 12111 et. seq. known as the Americans With Disabilities Act or § 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and New York State Human Rights Law.
The Board believes that:
1. Citizens want the opportunity of quality integrated education to be available to all children.
2. Quality integrated education requires that all children in the school system insofar as possible have contact with individuals of different races and ethnic backgrounds and with both men and women as teachers and administrators.
3. All employees and citizens of the community need to cooperate if steady progress is to be made in extending both quality and equality in the school system.
Board policies and actions of the administration will be directed toward extending equal educational opportunity for all students, a quality integrated school system, a balanced staff, and the extension of equal opportunity employment.
