FERPA Notice to Parents
FERPA Notice to Parents
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), a Federal Law, requires that Windsor Central School District, with certain exceptions, obtain your written consent prior to the disclosure of personally identifiable information from your child’s education records. However, Windsor Central School District may disclose appropriately designated “directory information” without written consent, unless you have advised the District to the contrary in accordance with District procedures. The primary purpose of directory information is to allow the Windsor Central School District to include this type of information from your child’s education records in certain school publications.
Examples include:
a playbill showing your student’s role in a drama production;
the annual yearbook;
Honor Roll and other recognition lists;
graduation programs; and
sports activity sheets, such as for wrestling, showing weight and height of team members.
Directory Information, which is information that is generally not considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if released, can also be disclosed to outside organizations without a parent’s prior written consent. Outside organizations include, but are not limited to, companies that manufacture class rings or publish yearbooks. In addition, the New York State Education Law § 2-1 and two federal laws require school Districts receiving assistance under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA) to provide military recruiters, upon request, with student names, addresses and telephone listings — unless parents have advised the school District that they do not want their student’s information disclosed without their prior written consent.
If you do not want Windsor Central School District to disclose some or all directory information from your child’s education records without your prior written consent, you must notify the District in writing within 30 days after the publication of this notice.
WCSD has designated the following information as directory information.
Student’s name

Telephone listing

Student’s image, and or video
Date and place of birth
