Student Records and Privacy

[Guest guest]

Hi Group-

I'm needing some insight into a situation at my grade school dealing with

student information and privacy.

I noticed recently when accessing my parent account at my school district, that

under the general student information section, now listed in the " nurse alert

section " , is 'mosaic down syndrome'. In years past, I have listed my son's spine

precautions noting things like no tumbling or potential for high impact falls.

It appears the school has taken information from the IEP and placed it in the

public domain for an unlimited number of school employees to view.

I have requested the diagnosis be removed from the nurse alert section and the

school has yet to correct the information.

I welcome any advice from the group.

Thanks-

Stefanie
