Subject: RE: Consolidated Program Review (CPR) 2013-2014 Report
Importance: High
Hi Mary,

The yellow highlighted areas are questions for you and the blue are areas for me to follow up.


Thank you so much for the detailed response to each area. Since our funding is limited in Migrant and therefore only
funds Mariella partially we are limited in staff who can provide professional development. Can I use the ELL coaches who
are partially funded out of Title III? If not then it leaves me to provide the professional development. I'm happy to do
that, especially since you have a power point. Based on your information here is what I intend.

1. I will create the action plan for professional development and will provide the classes myself. I will also do as you
recommend by offering both the 7 Areas of Concern and the Migrant 101. I would like to schedule a course by May 31st
and again in August. We will need two sessions since we have so many teachers. I will call you Monday to schedule a
training for both Mariella and I, but I will be the primary on this professional development.

2. I will wait to see the I&R plan from the district you mentioned. This will be interesting to produce since we have such
a big district that is broken up into five regions. The only staff we have is Mariella, so I'm making an assumption that she
is the only one who needs training. However, since our students enroll at the main district office here and not at schools,
would it be possible to have the enrollment facilitators trained as well?

3. The data issue is almost resolved. Miguel has been working closely with our DOTs team. The conversion from ESIS
to Power Schools was/is challenging and we do not have access to the data required. Attendance, immunizations, credits
to name a few. Again, we have been working a great deal with DOTs and are close to resolving this issue. I therefore do
not think we will need to do anything other than submit the documentation and evidence of communication between
DOTs and the department.

I'm in route to the Migrant Conference (my first time) and will be sure to follow up with you on Monday. I truly
appreciate the support and look forward to talking to you soon.

Veronica

SEXUAL HARASSMENT


Policy No. 3208

December 7, 2011

Page 1 of 2


The Seattle School District is committed to a positive and productive education
and work environment free from discrimination, including sexual harassment.
The district prohibits sexual harassment of students, employees and others
involved in school district activities.

Sexual harassment occurs when:
A. Submitting to the harasser's sexual demands is a stated or implied
condition of obtaining an education or work opportunity or other benefit;
B. Submission to or rejection of sexual demands is a factor in an academic,
work or other school-related decision affecting an individual; or
C. Unwelcome sexual or gender-directed conduct or communication
interferes with an individual's performance or creates an intimidating,
hostile or offensive environment.

Sexual harassment can occur adult to student, student to adult, student to
student, adult to adult, male to female, female to male, male to male and female
to female.

The district will take prompt, equitable and remedial action within its authority
on reports, complaints and grievances alleging sexual harassment that come to
the attention of the district, either formally or informally. Allegations of criminal
misconduct will be reported to law enforcement and suspected child abuse will be
reported to law enforcement or Child Protective Services. Persons found to have
been subjected to sexual harassment will have appropriate school district services
made reasonably available to them and adverse consequences of the harassment
shall be reviewed and remedied, as appropriate.

Engaging in sexual harassment will result in appropriate discipline or other
appropriate sanctions against offending students, staff and contractors. Anyone
else who engages in sexual harassment on school property or at school activities
will have their access to school property and activities restricted, as appropriate.

Retaliation against any person who makes or is a witness in a sexual harassment
complaint is prohibited and will result in appropriate discipline. The district will
take appropriate actions to protect involved persons from retaliation.

It is a violation of this policy to knowingly report false allegations of sexual
harassment. Persons found to knowingly report or corroborate false allegations
will be subject to appropriate discipline.




SEXUAL HARASSMENT


Policy No. 3208

December 7, 2011

Page 2 of 2



The Superintendent shall develop and implement formal and informal
procedures for receiving, investigating and resolving complaints or reports of
sexual harassment. The procedures will include reasonable and prompt timelines
and delineate staff responsibilities under this policy. All staff are responsible for
receiving informal complaints and reports of sexual harassment and informing
appropriate district personnel of the complaint or report for investigation and
resolution. All staff are also responsible for directing complainants to the formal
complaint process.

The Superintendent shall develop procedures to provide age-appropriate
information and education to district staff, students, parents and volunteers
regarding this policy and the recognition and prevention of sexual harassment. At
a minimum sexual harassment recognition and prevention and the elements of
this policy will be included in staff, student and regular volunteer orientation.

This policy shall be posted in each district building in a place available to staff,
students, parents, volunteers and visitors. The policy shall be reproduced in each
student, staff, volunteer and parent handbook.

The Superintendent shall make an annual report to the Board reviewing the use
and efficacy of this policy and related procedures. Recommendations for changes
to this policy, if applicable, shall be included in the report. The Superintendent is
encouraged to involve staff, students, and volunteers and parents in the review
process.

Introduction
Per policy D49.50, the Seattle School District is committed to maintaining a positive and
productive environment, free from discrimination, including sexual harassment, for adults
and students. The district prohibits sexual harassment of students, employees and others
involved in school district activities.
Sexual harassment occurs when:
A. Submitting to the harasser's sexual demands is a stated or implied condition of
obtaining an education or work opportunity or other benefit;
B. Submission to or rejection of sexual demands is a factor in an academic, work or
other school-related decision affecting an individual; or
C. Unwelcome sexual or gender-directed conduct or communication interferes with an
individual's performance or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive
environment.
Informal Complaint Process
Anyone may use informal procedures to report and resolve complaints of sexual
harassment. Informal reports may be made to any staff member, although staff shall
always inform complainants of their right to, and the process for, filing a formal complaint.
Staff shall also direct potential complainants to an appropriate staff member who can
explain the informal and formal complaint processes and what a complainant can expect.
Staff shall also inform an appropriate supervisor or professional staff member when they
receive complaints of sexual harassment, especially when the complaint is beyond their
training to resolve or alleges serious misconduct.
Informal remedies may include an opportunity for the complainant to explain to the
alleged harasser that his or her conduct is unwelcome, offensive or inappropriate, either in
writing or face-to-face; a statement from a staff member to the alleged harasser that the
alleged conduct is not appropriate and could lead to discipline if proven or repeated; or a
general public statement from an administrator in a building reviewing the district sexual
harassment policy without identifying the complainant. Informal complaints may become
formal complaints at the request of the complainant, parent, guardian, or because the
district believes the complaint needs to be more thoroughly investigated.
Formal Complaint Process
Anyone may initiate a formal complaint of sexual harassment, even if the informal
complaint process is being utilized. Potential complainants who wish to have the district
hold their identity confidential shall be informed that the district will almost assuredly face
due process requirements that will make available all ofthe information that the district
has to the accused. The district will, however, fully implement the anti-retaliation

provisions of this policy to protect complainants and witnesses. Student complainants and
witnesses may have a trusted adult with them during any district-initiated investigatory
activities. The Superintendent or designated compliance officer (hereinafter referred to as
the compliance officer) may conclude that the district needs to conduct an iuvestigation
based on information in his or her possession regardless of the complainant's interest in
filing a formal complaint. The following process shall be followed:
A. The compliance officer or his or her designee shall receive and investigate all formal,
written complaints of sexual harassment, or information in the compliance officer's
possession that the officer believes requires further investigation.
B. All formal complaints shall be in writing; shall be signed by the complainant; and
shall set forth the specific acts, conditions or circumstances alleged to have occurred
and to constitute sexual harassment. The compliance officer or his or her designee
may draft the complaint based on the report of the complainant, for the
complainant to review and sign.
C. When the investigation is completed, the compliance officer or his or her designee
shall compile a full written report of the complaint and the results of the
investigation. If the matter has not been resolved to the complainant's satisfaction,
the Superintendent shall take further action on the report.
D. The Superintendent shall respond in writing to the complainant and the accused
within thirty days stating:
1. That the district does not have adequate evidence to conclude that
harassment occurred; or
2. Corrective actions that the district intends to take; and/or
3. That the investigation is incomplete to date and will be continuing.
E. Corrective measures deemed necessary will be instituted as quickly as possible, but
in no event more than thirty days after the Superintendent's written response,
unless the accused is appealing the imposition of discipline and the district is barred
by due process considerations or a lawful order from imposing the discipline until
the appeal process is concluded. Staff may also pursue complaints through the
appropriate collective bargaining agreement process or anti-discrimination policy.
Compliance Officer: The Superintendent designates the Executive Director of Health &
Safety as the compliance officer for this policy and procedure.
Appeal Procedure
Level One
If a complainant remains aggrieved as a result of the action or inaction of the
Superintendent in resolving a complaint, the complainant may appeal to the Board of the
district by filing a written notice of appeal with the Secretary of the Board, who shall direct
it to the Board Office, by the 10th calendar day following:
A. The date upon which the complainant received the Superintendent's response, or
B. The expiration of the 30-calendar day response period based on the receipt of the
complaint by the school district, whichever occurs first.

Cross Reference: Policy No. 3207; 3207SP.A; 3207SP.B; 3208; Dso.oo; DSl.oO
Page 2 of4
C. The Board shall schedule a hearing to commence by the 20th calendar day following
the filing of the written notice of appeal. Both parties shall be allowed to present
such witnesses and testimony as the Board deems relevant and material. The Board
shall render a written decision by the 10th calendar day following the termination of
the hearing and shall provide a copy to the complainant.
Level Two
If a complainant remains aggrieved as a result of the decision of the Board in resolving a
complaint, the complainant may appeal to the Superintendent of Public Instruction by
filing a written notice of appeal with the Superintendent of Public Instruction by the 10th
calendar day following the date upon which the complainant received written notice of the
Board's decision.
The Superintendent of Public Instruction shall schedule a hearing to commence by the
40th calendar day following the filing of the written notice of appeal. The notice of appeal
must state the areas of disagreement and the relief requested.
Appeals to the Superintendent of Public Instruction shall be conducted de novo and in
compliance with the state Administrative Procedures Act. The complainant shall present
his or her case and the school district shall defend the decision rendered by the Board.
Training
Afixed component of all district orientation sessions for staff, students and regular
volunteers shall introduce the elements of this policy. Staff will be provided information on
recognizing and preventing sexual harassment. Staff shall be fully informed of the formal
and informal complaint processes and their roles and responsibilities under the policy and
procedure. Certificated staff shall be reminded of their legal responsibility to report
suspected child abuse, and how that responsibility may be implicated by some allegations
of sexual harassment. Regular volunteers shall get the portions of this component of
orientation relevant to their rights and responsibilities.
Students will be provided with age-appropriate information on the recognition and
prevention of sexual harassment and their rights and responsibilities under this and other
district policies and rules at student orientation sessions and on other appropriate
occasions, which may include parents. Parents shall be provided with copies of this policy
and procedure and appropriate materials on the recognition and prevention of sexual
harassment.
As part of the information on the recognition and prevention of sexual harassment staff,
volunteers, students and parents will be informed that sexual harassment may include, but
is not limited to:
A. Demands for sexual favors in exchange for preferential treatment or something of
value;
B. Stating or implying that a person will lose something if he or she does not submit to
a sexual request;
Superintendent Procedure 3208SP
Cross Reference: Policy No. 3207; 3207SP.A; 3207SP.B; 3208; Dso.oO; DSl.oO

c. Penalizing a person for refusing to submit to a sexual advance, or providing a
benefit to someone who does;
D. Making unwelcome, offensive or inappropriate sexually suggestive remarks
comments, gestures, or jokes; or remarks of a sexual nature about a person's
appearance, gender or conduct;
E. Using derogatory sexual terms for a person;
F. Standing too close, inappropriately touching, cornering or stalking a person; or
G. Displaying offensive or inappropriate sexual illustrations on school property.
Annually the Superintendent or designee will convene an ad hoc committee composed of
representatives of certificated and classified staff, volunteers, students and parents to
review the use and efficacy of this policy and procedure. The compliance officer will be
included in the committee. Based on the review of the committee, the Superintendent shall
prepare a report to the Board including, if necessary, any recommended policy changes.
The Superintendent shall consider adopting changes to this procedure if recommended by
the committee.

female students as demonstrated in one of the following ways:
1. The ratio of male/female student enrollment is substantially proportionate to the ratio of male/female
student athletic participation.
2. The school has a history and continuing pattern of program expansion for the underrepresented sex.
3. The schools current program effectively accommodates the interests and abilities of the underrepresented
sex as demonstrated by the athletic interest survey and other requests for specific sports.
Title IX, 34 CFR 106.41; RCW 28A.640.020; WAC 392-190-030, 392-190-035, 392-190-040, and 392-190-045.

RequiredAction:Submit an action plan describing the process the district uses or will use to annually evaluate the
districts girls and boys athletic programs at each building to determine if equal opportunities and benefits
are available to both sexes, considering all of the required factors. Include who is or will be responsible for

RE: Grant Spending

In keeping with our commitment to providing financial stewardship to the district by ensuring financial
resources are used effectively, the Office of Grants and Fiscal Compliance has completed a review of
year-to-date spending for all major district grants.

The purpose of the memo is to apprise you of the results of this review as they relate to your grant(s)
and to request a detailed spending plan for the balance of the 2013-14 school year. Our records indicate
that you are the program manager for the following grant(s) which has the negative balance listed:

FUND
CODE
GRANT DOLLAR
BALANCE
PERCENT
BALANCE
1C01 Title I, Part A $-7,926.29 -21%

The balance was determined after actual spending and encumbrances were deducted.

By May 5, each program manager must provide a plan which addresses the overspent grant and includes
a corrective action to balance its budget.

Please send completed plans or questions regarding content and expectations to Kevin Corrigan,
Director of Grants and Strategic Partnerships, or to Min Yee, Cost Analyst.

Thank you for your attention to this request.
