The Title IX/EEO Officer will support the implementation of the District’s Discrimination Complaint Resolution Process and its Title IX, Title VI, Equal Employment Opportunity, anti-harassment, and nondiscrimination policies.

This includes developing guidance, resources, protocols, and training related to Title IX, Title VI, workplace discrimination, and applicable federal and state civil rights and nondiscrimination laws, regulations, policies, and procedures.

The Title IX/EEO Officer will lead or coordinate Title IX investigations involving students and employees and will oversee the District’s response to Title VI complaints and concerns. The incumbent will analyze complaint and investigation data to identify trends, systemic concerns, and potential disparities; recommend appropriate corrective actions; and develop long-term strategies to prevent discrimination and harassment, strengthen compliance, improve school and workplace climate, and promote equitable access and positive experiences for students, employees, families, and community members.
