Title IX is a Federal Law that was passed in 1972 to insure that male and female employees and students in educational settings are treated equally and fairly. The law protects against discrimination based on gender. Title IX requires that each school district have at least one person designated as the Title IX Officer.
Director of Special Services Rosemary (Rosie) Slowik is the Title IX officer for the Orange public schools district. Should you feel you have been discriminated against, you should contact Slowik either by e-mail at rslowik@orange-ed.org or by phone at 203-891-8023 ext. 1204. Slowik’s office is located in Central Office.
