Affirmative Action Information

The North Plainfield Board of Education affirms its responsibility to ensure all students receive equal educational opportunities regardless of sex, race, creed, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, social status, or economic status. 

The North Plainfield School District disapproves of all acts or patterns of discrimination against employees and students. 

Therefore, the Board takes corrective action when a complaint is brought to the attention of the Affirmative Action Officer. If an employee or student feels that he/she has been discriminated against, they should file a written grievance (complaint) with the Affirmative Action Officer who shall investigate all such allegations.

Any person who believes that he/she has been discriminated against may also file a complaint with the Office for Civil Rights or the Department of Education at the same time a grievance is filed during or after the grievance process, or without using the school district process at all. A person may also file a grievance with the New Jersey Division on Civil Rights.
