The staff of Snow Heights Elementary believes that ALL students are important and can learn. Our purpose is to educate in an academically challenging and emotionally safe environment in which all students can attain their maximum potential.
The following information is provided in response to 34 C.F.R. Part 106.8 of the 2020 Title IX Regulations, mandating notice of a nondiscrimination policy and adoption and publication of grievance procedures that provide for the prompt and equitable resolution of student and employee complaints.
In accordance with Title IX, the District does not, and is required not to, discriminate on the basis of sex in its educational programs or activities. The requirement not to discriminate extends to employment. As a school district serving students in kindergarten through grade 12, the District is not subject to provisions in Title IX Regulations (Subpart C) prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sex in admissions and recruitment. However, the district does not discriminate on the basis of sex in admissions or transfer requests.
The District has designated and authorized the following employee as the Title IX Coordinator to address concerns or inquiries regarding discrimination on the basis of sex, including sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking, and gender-based harassment:
Name: Skip Baskerville Position: Associate Superintendent for Human Resources, Governance, and Support Services Address: 6125 E. Belknap Street, Haltom City, TX 76117 Email: Title IX coordinator (skip.baskerville@birdvilleschools.net) Telephone: (817) 547-5700
Any person can report sex discrimination, including sexual harassment, in person, by mail, telephone, email, or any other means, at any time, that results in the Title IX coordinator receiving the person’s verbal or written report.
During district business hours, reports may also be made in person to the Title IX Coordinator or their designee.
To obtain a copy of the District’s Title IX policies, including the grievance process that complies with 34 C.F.R. § 106.45(b) of the 2020 Title IX Regulations, please contact Skip Baskerville, as noted above.
Upon receiving an allegation of sex-based harassment, the Title IX Coordinator will promptly respond in accordance with board policies FFH and DIA.
Inquiries about the application of Title IX may be referred to the district’s Title IX Coordinator, to the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights of the Department of Education, or both.

Title I, Part A is the largest federal assistance program for schools. Title I helps students receive a fair, equal, and high-quality education by providing additional funding to support student success. In order to receive these funds, our district and campus must create a plan for refining our educational offerings and involving families in their students' education.
Goals of Title I include:
Improved student performance and well-being
Increased family engagement in their child's education
Better two-way communication between families and schools
As a parent or guardian, you are an important part of our Title I team. We would like to invite you to:
Attend our school's annual Title I meeting
Learn about your rights and responsibilities
Assess whether our Title I offerings meet your child's needs, and offer suggestions for improvement as needed
