Attorneys Zachary D. Schurin and Melinda B. Kaufmann of Pullman & Comley’s School Law practice will host a one-hour webinar this Thursday, March 24th from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM on the new Title IX regulations regarding sexual harassment in schools as well as student expulsions and related student disciplinary issues.
With respect to Title IX, it has been over a year-and-a-half since the federal Department of Education’s new Title IX regulations went into effect. Attorney Kaufmann will cover what schools are doing right - and what they are getting wrong - in implementing the new regulations as well as actions school districts and other covered entities can take to reduce sexual harassment of students in its schools.
Attorney Schurin will review legal requirements with respect to student discipline including search and seizure issues, FERPA obligations, mandatory and non-mandatory expulsions, expulsion hearing procedures and best practices for preparing and putting on an expulsion case to your board or a hearing officer. This is an extremely important topic given the dramatic spike in student disciplinary issues in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
There will be dedicated time for Q&A. We invite you to join us for this informative discussion.
