Non-discrimination Policy

It is the policy of the Huntingdon Special School District not to discriminate on the basis of sex, race, national origin, creed, age, marital status, or disability in its educational programs, activities or employment policies as required by Title VI and VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, Title IX of the 1972 Educational Amendments and Section 504 of the Federal Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Discrimination shall include antisemitism, defined as a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews including, but not limited to, rhetorical and physical manifestations of antisemitism directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities. If you have a complaint, contact Christy Carey at 731-986-2222.

 

It is also the policy of the Huntingdon Special School District that the curriculum materials utilized reflect the cultural and racial diversity present in the United States and the variety of career roles and lifestyles open to women as well as men in our society.  One of the objectives of the total curriculum and teaching strategies is to reduce stereotyping and to eliminate bias on the basis of sex, race, ethnicity, religion and disability.  The curriculum should foster respect and appreciation of the rights, duties and responsibilities of each individual as a member of a pluralistic society.
