Documentation Requirements  

Recordkeeping  

The designated civil rights administrator will be responsible for keeping records of all  civil rights violations and hate crimes reported for the school. These records shall be  grouped according to school year and grade. In addition to recording the particulars of the  incident itself, the system should record the actions taken in response and the results of  the investigation and intervention. The civil rights administrator shall keep this  information gathered at a central place such as a school civil rights office.  

Monitoring and Tracking to Identify Patterns  

Records should be maintained so as to permit administrators to detect patterns in civil  rights violations, repeat offenders, and problem locations. Responsive action should be  tailored based on the pattern information that records reveal.
