Formal Accessibility Grievance Process

Any person who believes that the school district has discriminated against them because of their disability and thus violated Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and/or Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) may file a written grievance with the Kent School District Section 504/ADA Coordinator. Once a written grievance is received, the District will investigate the allegations contained in the written grievance in an effort to reach a prompt and equitable resolution.

At a minimum, the grievance must contain:

  1. The nature of the grievance;

  2. The facts upon which the grievance is based, including a list of all witnesses;

  3. The remedy requested; and

  4. The complainant’s signature and the date the grievance is filed.

The written grievance must be filed with the Kent School District's Section 504 Coordinator.
