Title IX is a federal civil rights law in the United States of America that was passed as part of the Education Amendments of 1972. This law prohibits sex-based discrimination in all educational programs and activities, including athletic programs receiving federal financial assistance.

No person shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any educational program or activity operated by the Hatch Valley Public School District.

Title IX protects all participants in the district’s educational programs and activities, including students, parents, employees, and job applicants.
