What Every Parent Should Know About FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) was put into place in 1974 as a way for schools and families alike to protect student data from unauthorized access and misuse. By giving parents control over who can view their children's educational records and preventing schools from releasing confidential data without explicit consent from either parent or student (if over 18), FERPA is an important tool in keeping our kids safe while still allowing them access to a quality education.
