Hallsville Independent School District

Please try to resolve the issue informally by discussing it first with the campus principal, department head, or relevant administrator. Almost all matters in Hallsville ISD are resolved at this level. We want to work with individuals to solve issues in a direct and timely manner.

If the issue is not resolved informally, you may file a formal grievance following the procedures below:

Parent/Student Complaint (FNG)

• Review Local Board Policy related to complaints
• Level One Form

Public Complaint (GF)

• Review Local Board Policy related to complaints
• Level One Form

Employee Complaint (DGBA)

• Review Local Board Policy related to complaints
• Level One Form

If the grievance is not resolved at Level One, you may file an appeal by completing a Level Two form.

• Level Two Parent/Student Appeal (FNG)
• Level Two Public Complaint (GF)
• Level Two Employee Complaint (DGBA)

If the student, parent, or community member did not receive the relief requested at Level Two or if the time for a response has expired, the student, parent, or community member may appeal the decision to the Board. The appeal shall be heard by a hearing officer who shall not be a District employee and then ultimately considered by the Board. Hearing officers must have a deep understanding of district policy in order to be qualified. Many districts do not hire hearing officers and instead assign current employees to conduct Level 3 hearings.

• Level Three Parent/Student Appeal (FNG)
• Level Three Public Complaint (GF)
• Level Three Employee Complaint (DGBA)
