Q: All public educational institutions are accountable to protect you as a pregnant student under title IX. Private schools that receive federal funding are also accountable. Any educational institution that receives federal funds, including those run in correctional or health care facilities, must abide by Title IX or forfeit funding.  Any educational program that receives federal funds, including internships and School-to-Work programs, must abide by Title IX. A school that is controlled by a religious organization is exempt from Title IX when the law’s requirements would conflict with the organization’s religious beliefs. This means if the religion has a strict belief against premarital sex, the student would not be protected by Title IX and could potentially be denied the opportunity to continue participating in classes or have excused absences due to pregnancy. Every school that receives federal funds must designate a Title IX coordinator or counselor. This person will help you navigate the system as a pregnant student. Ask in the main office of your school, or look up the coordinator online. The information has to be readily available for your school to be in compliance with Title IX, so don't take no for an answer. Under Title IX, your school must allow you to continue participating in classes and extracurricular activities while pregnant. Continue to take your regularly scheduled classes, including advanced placement and honors classes. If you would like, you can continue to participate in school clubs, sports, and after-school programs.  Hold your positions. If you have been elected to a position of student leadership, an honors society, or anything else, you may not be asked to step down because of your pregnancy. Again, if you school is exempt to Title IX, you may not be guaranteed these rights. If your school is held to title IX they must excuse absences related to pregnancy or childbirth, provided your doctor says they are needed. Your school must allow you to return to the same place you were in when you left. They cannot demote you from positions you held, nor remove you from the classes you were in. You must be given the chance to make up the work you missed when absent, including homework, tests, and presentations. If you are graded on attendance or class participation, your teachers must give you alternative assignments of equal worth. Your school may give you the choice of transferring to an alternative school, or taking special instructional classes for pregnant students. This program must offer the same types of academic, extracurricular and enrichment opportunities as your school’s regular program. Under Title IX, this must be a choice: your school cannot pressure you to participate. If you are in middle or high school, your school might want to transfer you to an alternative school. You do not have to transfer. Visit the facilities of the alternative school. If you don't like it, stay in your regular school. Students who transfer when they don't want to are more likely to drop out. As a pregnant student, you should have the same rights as other students with temporary medical conditions. Some schools offer significant help to students with medical issues. If your school provides these students with homebound instruction, independent study, or at-home tutoring, you can ask for these options as well.  Unless your school requires one from all temporarily disabled/ill students, you should not be required to get a doctor's note to participate in class or extracurricular activities.  You are not required to provide a doctor's note to excuse your hospitalization during childbirth, unless all students who are hospitalized are required to provide a note. Your school must provide for your comfort as a pregnant student. You can ask for adjustments such as a larger desk or access to elevators. Ask to be seated near the door, so that you can take frequent trips to the restroom. Go to the restroom as often as you need to: you cannot be penalized for pregnancy-related bodily demands. Your school is required to protect you from bullying and discrimination. Report any student, teacher, or other member of your school's community who makes a sexual comment about you, calls you a "slut," spreads rumors about you, makes sexual gestures, or does anything else that makes you uncomfortable. Tell people they can't touch you without permission, even when your belly is big. Report offenders to your Title IX coordinator, your counselor, or other staff. As a pregnant student, you are covered under the same policy that prohibits sex discrimination. Your school is required to have a policy against sex discrimination, and to distribute it. Your school is also required to have grievance procedures in place. If you experience sex discrimination, file a complaint with your school's Title IX coordinator using your school's internal grievance procedures.  If your school has failed to appoint a Title IX coordinator, or if the coordinator has proven unhelpful, file a grievance with the U.S. Department of Education, Office for Civil Rights, within 180 days of when the discrimination took place.  If your school has been egregiously discriminatory or unhelpful, consider filing in court.  Contact the Office for Civil Rights if you have questions about your rights or if you would like to report a school district or university for violating Title IX.
A: Determine whether or not your school is held to Title IX. Speak to your school's Title IX coordinator. Demand your education. Take the time you need. Take special classes for pregnant students if you want to. Learn your school's policies for all students with physical or emotional conditions. Ask to be made comfortable. Don't put up with harassment. File a grievance.

Q: Hop in the shower and shampoo your hair as you normally would. Soap up your hair and gently massage the shampoo into your scalp. Then rinse the shampoo out completely. After you finish shampooing, towel-dry your hair thoroughly. 3 and let it sit for 10-30 minutes. Pour a nickel-sized amount of the Olaplex No. 3 solution into your hands and massage it into your scalp, just as you would with regular shampoo. Be sure to comb the serum through all of your hair, saturating all of the strands as you go. Let it sit for the required amount of time.  Leave the Olaplex No. 3 in your hair for at least 10-30 minutes. If your hair has recently been dyed or otherwise damaged, consider leaving it in for an hour or two. You may want to put on a shower cap to keep the serum from touching your clothes or other items in your home while you wait out the clock. After the allotted amount of time, hop back in the shower and rinse out the Olaplex No. 3 treatment with warm water. Then, shampoo and condition your hair as you normally would. Once you get out of the shower, your hair should be silky smooth, healthy, and ready to be styled! For the best results, you should keep applying Olaplex to your hair every 10 days after you're initial treatment at the salon. Reapplying the Olaplex No. 3 solution will help keep your hair smooth and healthy.
A:
Shampoo and towel-dry your hair normally. Apply Olaplex No. Rinse the treatment out and shampoo your hair. Repeat the treatment once every 10 days.
