The purpose of this letter is to comply with this annual notification requirement. Below you will find a copy of the school committee policy regarding notification of the rights under The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). NEPN/NSBA Code: JRA-E ANNUAL NOTICE OF STUDENT EDUCATION RECORDS AND INFORMATION RIGHTS The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”) provides certain rights to parents and eligible students (18 years of age or older) with respect to the student’s education records. Inspection of Records Parents/eligible students may inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of making a request. Such requests must be submitted to the Superintendent or building administrator in writing and must identify the record(s) to be inspected. The Superintendent or building administrator will notify the parent/eligible student of the time and place where the record(s) may be inspected. Parents/eligible students may obtain copies of education records at a cost of $.25 cents per page. Amendment of Records Parents/eligible students may ask the Biddeford School Department to amend education records they believe are inaccurate, misleading or in violation of the student’s right to privacy. Such requests must be submitted to the Superintendent or building administrator in writing, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the Superintendent or building administrator decides not to amend the record as requested, the parent/eligible student will be notified of the decision, their right to request a hearing, and information about the hearing procedure. Disclosure of Records The Biddeford School Department must obtain a parent/eligible student’s written consent prior to disclosure of personally identifiable information in education records except in circumstances as permitted by law. 1.

Directory Information The Biddeford School Department designates the following student information as directory information that may be made public at its discretion: name, participation and grade level of students in officially recognized activities and sports, height and weight of student athletes, dates of attendance in the school unit, honors and awards received, and photographs and videos relating to school attendance and participation in school activities (except photographs and videos on the Internet). Parents/eligible students who do not want the Biddeford School Department to disclose directory information must notify the Superintendent in writing within thirty (30) days of enrollment. This opt-out request will remain in effect unless and until is is rescinded.

2.

Military Recruiters/Institutions of Higher Education Military recruiters and institutions of higher education are entitled to receive the names, addresses and telephone numbers of secondary students and the Biddeford School Department must comply with any such request, provided that parents have been notified of their right to request that this information not be released without their prior written consent.

3.

School Officials with Legitimate Educational Interest Education records may be disclosed to school officials with a “legitimate educational interest”.
