Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 11, December 11, 2024

Rule 281-102.6 - Filing of a report

(1)Who may file. Any person who has knowledge of an incident of abuse of a student committed by a school employee may file a report with the designated investigator.

(2)Content of report. The report is to be in writing, signed, and, if signed by a minor, witnessed by a person of majority age and contain the following information:

a. The full name, address, and telephone number of the person filing.

b. The full name, age, address, telephone number, and attendance center of the student.

c. The name and place of employment of the school employee(s) or agents who allegedly committed the abuse.

d. A concise statement of the facts surrounding the incident, including date, time, and place of occurrence, if known.

e. A list of possible witnesses by name, if known.

f. Names and locations of any and all persons who examined, counseled or treated the student for the alleged abuse, including the dates on which those services were provided, if known.

(3)Incomplete reports. The designated investigator shall aid parties requesting assistance in completing the report. An incomplete report will not be rejected unless a reasonable person would conclude that the missing information that is unable to be provided by the reporter would render investigation futile or impossible. An unsigned (anonymous) or unwitnessed report may be investigated, but the designated investigator then has no duty to report findings and conclusions to the reporter.
