Title IX Training Materials

Olney Independent School District
Last updated: October 19, 2026

Statement

As required by 34 C.F.R. 106.45(b)(10)(i)(D), Olney ISD makes publicly available on its website all materials used to train its Title IX Coordinator, investigators, decision-makers, and any person who facilitates an informal resolution process. Those materials are posted on this page.

Under 34 C.F.R. 106.45(b)(1)(iii), these individuals receive training on:

  • the definition of sexual harassment under Title IX;
  • the scope of the District's education program or activity;
  • how to conduct an investigation and grievance process, including appeals and informal resolution processes, as applicable;
  • how to serve impartially, including by avoiding prejudgment of the facts at issue, conflicts of interest, and bias;
  • for decision-makers, issues of relevance of questions and evidence, including when questions and evidence about a complainant's sexual predisposition or prior sexual behavior are not relevant; and
  • for investigators, issues of relevance in creating an investigative report that fairly summarizes relevant evidence.

Training materials used by the District must not rely on sex stereotypes and must promote impartial investigations and adjudications of formal complaints of sexual harassment. The District retains these materials for seven years.
