Gender Equity/Title IX
Gender Equity It is the policy of the State of California that all persons, regardless of their gender, should enjoy freedom from discrimination of any kind in the educational institution of the state. The laws found in the California Education Code 221.5-231.5 are collectively known as the Sex Equity in Education Act. These laws expand upon gender equity and Title IX laws which provide guidance to California’s education system. Each Local Educational Agency (LEA) will be responsible for following the laws in addition to Title IX requirements.
Senate Bill 1375 (California Education Code, 221.61), creates new requirements for the Title IX coordinators’ informational posts. Title IX coordinators should carefully read and disseminate the following:
California Education Code, 221.61
“No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”
Title IX requires that each school district have at least one person designated as the Title IX Coordinator.
