The District complies with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974. Parents and 18-year-old students may inspect official records relating to them including progress reports, grades, aptitude and achievement test scores, psychological tests, and teacher evaluations. A record may be challenged by parents or 18-year-olds when they believe it to be inaccurate or misleading. The principal has the authority to remove designated material if in agreement with the challenge. If the principal does not agree, the parent may appeal to the superintendent either to have it removed or to add explanatory comments to the record in question.
Individual student records are confidential and are not released to colleges, employers, or elsewhere without written permission. Customary directory information, such as athletic team rosters, graduation lists, or club lists, is made public for school purposes, and a list of senior class members is provided to the military services-unless the district is given prior notice by parents that they do not want their child’s name included in such lists. Parents should also inform the Superintendent if they do not wish their child’s likeness to be included in occasional photos or film taken by the media or district staff for school-related purposes. You must notify the superintendent by October 1st of each school year if you wish to deny permission for your student. Questions about school policies in connection with FERPA can be addressed to building principals or the superintendent.
