In the event that a child's guardian feels unable to resolve an issue with their student's instructor and/or the school administrators, they should escalate their concerns to the parent liaison at each school and include all the individuals listed above. The parent liaison will present concerns to the board in an appropriate way that protects each student's privacy.
