Directory Information
The school district proposes to designate the following personally identifiable information contained in a student's education record as "directory information," and it will disclose that information without prior written consent:
1. The student's name;
2. The names of the student's parents;
3. The student's date of birth;
4. The student's class designation (ie, first grade, tenth grade, etc.);
5. The student's extracurricular participation;
6. The student's achievement awards or honors;
7. The student's weight and height if a member of an athletic team;
8. The student's photograph; and
9. The school or school district the student attended before the student enrolled in this school district.
Within the first three weeks of each school year, the school district will publish the above list, or a revised list, of items of directory information it proposes to designate as
directory information. For students enrolling after the notice is published, the list will be given to the student's parent or the eligible student at the time and place of
enrollment.
After the parent or eligible student has been notified, he or she will have two weeks to advise the school district in writing (a letter to the school
superintendent's office) of any or all of the items they refuse to permit the district to designate as directory information about the student.
At the end of the two week
period, each student's record will be appropriately marked by the record custodian to indicate the items the district will designate as directory information about the
student. This designation will remain in effect until it is modified by the written direction of the student's parent or the eligible student.
