Student Privacy Annual Notices to Families School Year 2024-2025
The DOE takes the confidentiality of information about students very seriously. There are several federal and state laws, such as the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and New York State Education Law 2-d, and local regulations, such as Chancellor’s Regulation A-820, that protect students’ “personally identifiable information” (PII). These laws also place responsibilities on the DOE and outside parties that are given access to children’s PII, including the requirement for the DOE and schools to provide families with the following annual notices with links provided to you: Annual FERPA Notification and Parent Bill of Rights for Data Privacy and Security.
Annual PPRA Notification (School Year 2024-25)
The Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA) gives parents and students 18 and older certain rights regarding participation in surveys, the collection and use of information for marketing purposes, and certain physical exams.
