The Long Beach Unified School District does not tolerate harassment, including acts of harassment based on race, color, or national origin. Any student or parent who believes he or she has been subjected to harassment is encouraged to report the incidents to School administrators. The District is committed to conducting a prompt, adequate, and reliable investigation and providing an effective response to stop the harassment, prevent its recurrence and address its effects.

Every effort will be made to resolve the concerns of students and their parents/guardians at the earliest possible stage. Concerns not resolved can be addressed to the Middle School Office, Attention: Assistant Superintendent. If the concern continues to need resolution, it can be addressed to the District, Attention: Director of Human Resources through the Uniform Complaint Process (Please see attachment: UCP Annual Notice). Corrective actions may include counseling, training or discipline of a student or employee as appropriate.

Retaliation against those reporting harassment is prohibited and allegations that students and/or employees have retaliated against individuals who report harassment will be promptly investigated and addressed.
