PUBLIC COMPLAINT ABOUT THE CURRICULUM

OR INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS

The RSU #74 Board of Directors recognizes that it is the duty of the schools to provide a wide range of materials on all levels of difficulty, with diversity of appeal and the presentation of different points of view to support the curriculum.

The RSU #74 Board of Directors is legally responsible for all matters relating to the operation of the schools. The responsibility for the selection of instructional materials is delegated to the professionally trained staff (certified teachers, library medial personnel, and other administration).

Since it is recognized that occasional objections may be raised by community members, students or school staff, the administration will establish a procedure to be followed to allow an impartial consideration of a complaint. Any unresolved objection will be referred to the RSU #74 Board of Directors for its consideration and action.
