Dear TCA Staff, Parents, and Community,

The Classical Academy (TCA) is committed to a policy of nondiscrimination.  Respect for the dignity and worth of each individual shall be paramount.  Accordingly, we have a "no tolerance" policy with respect to acts of discrimination or harassment.  All TCA educational programs, activities, and employment opportunities offered by the school are offered without regard to disability, race, creed, color, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, religion, ancestry, age, genetic information, or conditions related to pregnancy or childbirth.  With respect to employment practices, TCA does not discriminate on the basis of age.

Protecting against and not tolerating discrimination and harassment is consistent with TCA’s Core Values and our Creed, which states that “Titans love, respect, and protect one another.  Striving to be our best, do our best, and give our best to the world.” Policy AC-TCA: Nondiscrimination and Equal Opportunity was updated last year and is available by clicking here.  This policy outlines the procedures on how students, parents, staff, and the community may file complaints and how TCA will work to resolve all complaints.

The Classical Academy is committed to conducting prompt investigations.  Any students or staff found to have engaged in any type of discrimination or harassment will be disciplined, and if circumstances warrant, suspension or expulsion of students may result.  Consequences of discrimination for employees may include, but are not limited to, termination of employment.  Let's work together to prevent all types of discrimination and harassment.

Any student, staff member, or parent should report any discrimination or harassment, including any Title IX, Section 504, or ADA complaints, to any TCA principal, counselor, or the following liaison:

Cheryl Birkey
Compliance Officer/Title IX Coordinator

We Are Titans!
