Non-Discrimination Notice
Lewis-Palmer School District #38 is dedicated to the principles of equal employment opportunity. We prohibit unlawful discrimination against applicants or employees on the basis of age, race (including traits historically associated with race, such as hair texture and length and protective hairstyles), sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, color, religion, creed, national origin, ancestry, disability, military status, genetic information, marital status, or any other status protected by applicable state or local law. Any harassment/discrimination of students, staff, and/or applicants based on the aforementioned protected areas, will not be tolerated and must be brought to the immediate attention of the school principal, administrator/supervisor, or the Lewis-Palmer non-discrimination compliance coordinator. The lack of English language skills shall not be a barrier to admission or participation in any District program.
