THE PARENT & STUDENT
BILL OF RIGHTS
To:
Re:
To Whom It May Concern,
This letter is to request immediately that my son/daughter,_______,
be afforded all the protections under state and federal law to protect
him from physical or emotional harassment, discrimination, retaliation,
or verbal abuse. As schools legally acts in behalf of the parent
while in their care, it is my understanding that he/she has a right to
learn in a safe and harm-free educational environment.
It is also my understanding that school personnel have
a duty to facilitate his protection and fully investigate all allegations
he reports. I am now requesting that you protect my child from the
various forms of abuse he has suffered at your school.
Because my child is a minor, he/she has been informed
that he/she is not to discuss any allegations of such abuse without myself/parent/legal
guardian present during these discussions. I expect to be immediately called
to attend to these discussions if my child makes a complaint.
I am requesting that this protection begin immediately.
I will assume you are taking the appropriate action from this date forward.
If I am incorrect, I request you immediately notify me, and my advocate
at the following address:
Advocate/Parent name
address
city, state, zip

Sincerely,
Parent's name

Pass this out to your children
if you fear your child will be challenge
because of bullying, discrimination,
verbal or physical abuse or retaliation.
