Policies
EQUAL EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY : Federal and state laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, gender, religion, or disability. MAYA provides a nondiscriminatory learning and work environment ensuring that all students and staff are free from unlawful discrimination. A lack of English language skills will not be a barrier to admission and participation in the education programs of the school. This commitment extends to all school programs and school sponsored events. A full copy of the grievance procedure is available from the school leader.
In the event a student experiences discrimination, the student should report the incident to the school leader within ten (10) school days. The inability of a student to speak English should not prevent the student from reporting a violation. Every reasonable measure to interpret a non-English speaker’s concerns will be taken.
