Grievance Procedure
The following is the proper protocol for Trinity School for Children families who have a grievance or concern to voice:
- Schedule a time with your child’s teacher to discuss the issue.
- If further action is needed, schedule an appointment with administration to discuss the issue.
- If further action is still needed, schedule an appointment with the principal to discuss the issue.
- After the above three steps are taken and you feel your issue has not been handled to your satisfaction, you may contact the School Board President, Dana Dowsett, at Dana.Dowsett@trinitysfc.com to be placed on the agenda at the next scheduled board meeting. All meetings are open to the public and time is set for public comment on non-agenda items.
This procedure has been set up because your concerns are important to us. Our School Board meetings are the proper setting for discussing any concerns our families may have. Our general TSFC – Meetings that will be held throughout the year are for informational purposes only and are not a forum for discussion of grievances or concerns. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
