Sexual harassment is conduct that:

• is unwelcome;

• is determined by a reasonable person to be severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive that it effectively denies a person's equal access to the school's education program or activity.

• Quid pro quo – a District employee conditioning the provision of an aid, benefit, or service of the district on an individual’s participation in unwelcome sexual conduct.

• Unwelcome conduct to be determined by a reasonable person to be so severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive that it effectively denies a person equal access to the District’s educational program; or

• "Sexual assault” (as defined by the Clery Act), “dating violence”, “domestic violence”, or “stalking” (as defined in the Violence Against Women Act)

The Title IX coordinator has the duty to address each report and remedy the effects on the victim and the school community. Every effort will be made to maintain confidentiality, but the Title IX team may be required to investigate the incident.
