Each district must adopt and follow a policy for the purpose of implementing
OAR 581-021-0650 to 581-021-0660. At a minimum, the policy must:

between a school district and an education service district, an education
service district may designate and provide one or more civil rights
coordinators for the school district. If an education service district
designates and provides one or more civil rights coordinators for a school
district, the education service district assumes the school district's duties
under OAR 581-021-0650 to OAR 581-021-0660 to the extent that the contract
delegates those duties. An education service district may designate and provide
