Title IX and Equal Opportunity

Our Policy:

Consistent with Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (“Title IX”), Hampton Roads Academy is committed to providing an environment that emphasizes the respect and worth of every member of its community and that is free from harassment and discrimination in admissions, employment, and education programs or activities based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender identity, veteran status, political affiliation, or any other status protected by law. Such an environment is necessary to a healthy learning, working, and living atmosphere because discrimination and harassment undermine human dignity and the positive connection between everyone on campus. In pursuit of this goal, any question of impermissible discrimination and/or harassment on these bases will be addressed with efficiency and energy in accordance with the Discrimination, Harassment and Sexual Misconduct Policy.
