Resources for Parents or Guardians

FERPA

Parents or guardians, in a addition to the resources listed below, you should also familiarize yourself with the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act.

The Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) was implemented in 1974 as a federal law to protect the privacy of student education records. FERPA also gives students the right to review their education records, seek to amend inaccurate information in their records, and provide consent for the disclosure of their records. This law applies to all schools that receive funds under an applicable program of the U.S. Department of Education.
