NASET Q & A Corner
Questions and Answers on Confidentiality of Information for Students with Disabilities
Introduction
IDEA 2004 and the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) contain provisions that protect the confidentiality of student records. These laws also provide parents the right to review and inspect records. The district will assume that each parent has the right to inspect and review their child’s educational records unless the district has received legal documents limiting parent access to those records.
The focus of this month’s issue of NASET’s Q & A Corner will be to address issues surrounding confidentiality of information for students with disabilities.
