Notice of Non-Discrimination

This policy represents a combined Notice of Non-Discrimination required by various federal laws, including Title VI, Title IX, Section 504, Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Age Discrimination Act. Each of the laws requires a slightly different set of information to be contained in the required notices. This Notice incorporates those different requirements into one so that the school need not adopt Notices for each law.

The combined non-discrimination notice should contain 2 basic elements: 1) a statement of nondiscrimination that specifies the basis for non-discrimination; and 2) identification by name or title, address, and telephone number of the employee(s) responsible for coordinating the compliance efforts.

Claims of discrimination by students in programs or activities conducted by the School must be processed in accordance with the School’s Uniform Complaint Procedures (“UCP”) required by the California Code of Regulations.

The Union Street Charter School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, disability, age, or any other legally protected category in its programs and activities and provides equal access to the Boy Scouts and other designated youth groups. The following person(s) has been designated to handle inquiries regarding the non-discrimination policies:

Name and/or Title: Principal

Address: 470 Union Street, Arcata, CA 95521

Telephone No.: 707 822-4845
