The requirement not to discriminate in its education program or activity extends to admission and employment. The Board is committed to maintaining an education and work environment that is free from discrimination based on sex, including sexual harassment. The Board prohibits Sexual Harassment that occurs within its education programs and activities. When the district has actual knowledge of Sexual Harassment in its education program or activity against a person in the United States, it shall promptly respond in a manner that is not deliberately indifferent, i.e., that is not clearly unreasonable in light of the known circumstances.
