Williams Complaint Procedures

The Williams legislation requires a school district to use its uniform complaint process to help identify and resolve any deficiencies related to:

  • Instructional materials
  • Teacher vacancy or misassignment
  • Emergency or urgent facilities conditions that pose a threat to the health and safety of students or staff

The Williams Uniform Complaint may be filed anonymously.  LEAs shall have a complaint form available for these types of complaints (see PDF file below), but will not reject a complaint if the form is not used as long as the complaint is submitted in writing.  Pleasanton Unified School District is required to report quarterly to ACOE on the number of Williams-related complaints that are received and resolved/unresolved using this form: UCP Quarterly Report

The District's Williams Uniform Complaint Procedures (AR 1312.4) shall be used to investigate and resolve any complaint related to the following:

  1. Sufficiency of textbooks or instructional materials
  2. Emergency or urgent facilities conditions that pose a threat to the health or safety of students or staff
  3. Teacher vacancies and misassignments
  4. Deficiency in the district's provision of instruction and/or services to any student who, by the completion of grade 12, has not passed one or both parts of the high school exit examination.
