Human Resources

 

Stillwater Area School District prohibits harassment, violence, discrimination and bullying in all forms, including on the basis of a person’s actual or perceived race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex/gender (including harassment based on gender identity and expression), marital status, disability, status with regard to public assistance, sexual orientation, age, family care leave status or veteran status. If you or someone you know has experienced harassment, violence, discrimination, or bullying at school or at any school-related event for any reason, you may make a report to have the incident(s) investigated by the District.  Any student, parent/guardian, or district employee may complete this form and return it to any administrator or the Human Resources Department.  Alternatively, you may make a verbal or other written report to an administrator or Human Resources Department. Any district employee who receives a completed report form or any other written or verbal report will immediately notify the school principal or the District Human Rights Officer/Title IX Coordinator of the report, who will designate the person to investigate and resolve the report pursuant to the District’s policies and federal and state laws. 

The District will respect the privacy of the complainant(s), the individual(s) against whom the complaint is filed, and the witnesses as much as possible, consistent with the school district’s legal obligations to investigate, to take appropriate action, and to comply with any discovery or disclosure obligations.

Please provide as much information as possible.  All requested information is optional. 

If you have any questions before submitting a complaint, please contact the district Human Rights Officer/Title IX Coordinator Kristine Carlston at 651-351-8311 or at carlstonk@stillwaterschools.org.

Background Check Request

The school district will seek criminal history background checks for all applicants who receive an offer of employment with the school district. The school district also will seek criminal history background checks for all volunteers and individuals, except enrolled student volunteers, who are offered the opportunity to provide athletic coaching services or other extracurricular academic coaching services to the school district, regardless of whether compensation is paid. These positions include, but are not limited to, all athletic coaches, extracurricular academic coaches, assistants, and advisors. The school district may elect to seek criminal history background checks for other volunteers, independent contractors, and student employees.

Background checks are FREE for volunteers. Employees will be charged $15.

School board policy requires that background checks for volunteers be renewed every four years. If you are uncertain about when your background check will expire, please contact the school secretary. Volunteers will also be asked to sign a release form.
