Title IX

The Swain County School district does not discriminate against anyone based on sex in its education programs or activities and is required by Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 and federal regulations to not discriminate in such a manner.  This requirement extends to admission and employment.

Inquiries about the application of Title IX and its implementing federal regulations may be referred to the Title IX Coordinator and/or the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights in the Office of Civil Rights at the U.S. Department of Education.
