No Child Left Behind

The Richard Allen Schools are public community schools that participate in statewide assessment (including Ohio's State Tests). The Schools uphold compulsory attendance requirements for all students, as required by law.

 

At the beginning of each school year, any parent who has a child attending any school receiving Title I funds may request and receive, in a timely manner, information regarding the professional qualifications of the student’s classroom teachers. In addition, the parents may also ask whether the child is provided services by a paraprofessional and, if so, his or her qualifications.

 

Parents may request information regarding the professional qualifications of their students' teachers by writing or emailing the principal. For a complete faculty roster, contact your school’s office or check the directory on the campus website.

For more information, please contact your campus administration.

Title IX

Title IX  of the Higher Education Act promises equal access to education for all students and it protects them against discrimination on the basis of sex.

 

Title IX was enacted to ensure: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”

 

What is Title IX?

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (20 U.S.C. Sec. 1681 et seq.) is a federal law that states: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” Title IX prohibits sex discrimination in education, including K-12 schools. Title IX has been used to promote equity in education by ensuring equal resources and treatment in education and school-related athletic and extracurricular activities, providing protections and for pregnant and parenting students, and prohibiting sex based harassment, discrimination, and bullying. In addition to this federal law, California Education law also prohibits schools from discriminating against students on the basis of sex (Education Code sections 220-221.1).
