Each student within the San Juan Unified School District has a right to have their suspension appealed should the parent or guardian believe that due process was not followed. An appeal must first be made to the principal of their site within a timely manner before it is brought to the Student Review and Intervention Office. The appeal timeline from the first day of the student's suspension to the deadline for the Student Review and Intervention Office to receive an appeal is 10 school days. The student is to still serve their suspension during the appeal process.
If the parent or guardian is not satisfied with the decision of the site principal, they must complete the Student Review and Interventions Office K-12 Suspension Appeal Form. This form must be completed and turned into the Student Review and Intervention Office within 10 school days of the first day of the student's suspension. This form may be faxed to (916) 971-7147 or delivered to 3700 Garfield Avenue, Carmichael, CA 95608.
Once a decision has been made by the Student Review and Intervention Administrator Candice Wilder, the decision is final and cannot be appealed further.
