Title IX

Title IX is a federal law that prohibits gender based discrimination. More information can be found following this link: USDOE OCR. Title IX protections apply to staff and students in our IPS community. Regulations issued by the federal government detail what qualifies as harassment or discrimination and how schools must respond. Gender based discrimination behaviors could include sexual misconduct, dating abuse or violence, and gender identity harassment. IPS also has a specific policy that prohibits gender based discrimination IPS Board Docs.

To inform our students, families and staff the IPS policy, administrative guidelines and available resources are provided here.
