The Board’s affirmative action program recognizes and values the diversity of persons and groups within society and promote the acceptance of persons of diverse backgrounds regardless of race, creed, color, national origin, ancestry, age, marital status, affectional or sexual orientation, gender, gender identity or expression, religion, disability, or socioeconomic status.

The affirmative action program at Collingswood Public Schools will also promote equal educational opportunity and foster a learning environment that is free from all forms of prejudice, discrimination, and harassment based upon race, creed, color, national origin, ancestry, age, marital status, affectional or sexual orientation, gender, gender identity or expression, religion, disability, or socioeconomic status in the policies, programs, and practices of the Board of Education.

Collingswood's Affirmative Action Officer is the district official responsible for the coordination of activities relating to compliance with the Affirmative Action Plan.

A complainant should discuss his/her complaint with the staff member most closely involved in an attempt to resolve the matter informally.

If the matter is not resolved to the satisfaction of the complainant within ten (10) working days, the complainant may submit a written complaint to the Affirmative Action Officer.

*Only one form needs to be submitted per complaint. Please only submit a paper copy OR an electronic copy.
