Complaints Against District Employees
The Pittsburg Unified School District’s Board of Education is committed to listening to the concerns of the community. The Board encourages parents, staff, students and community members to resolve problems early and informally whenever possible by:
- Talking to your child’s teacher
- Talking to an vice/assistant principal (if applicable)
- Talking to your school’s principal
- Keeping a log of who you have talked to regarding your concerns and dates and times of any related incidents
If your child’s teacher or principal has not been able to resolve your concern, please contact your school's District supervisor. Click here to review the complaint process and who to contact at each step: Contact Information for Questions, Issues, and Resolution page
Once the District has received your concern, you will be contacted by the appropriate staff.
During this process, you may be guided through the formal complaint processes outlined by Federal and California State law that includes a written statement that is signed and verified under penalty of perjury. These complaints allege a specific violation.
Concerns raised by parents/guardians about school district personnel should be resolved as quickly as possible. Therefore, parents or guardians of students in the Pittsburg Unified School District are urged to discuss their concerns directly with the employee(s) in question when concerns surface.
