SPECIAL EDUCATION RECORDS DESTRUCTION

SPECIAL EDUCATION RECORDS DESTRUCTION NOTICE

Glasgow School District #1A will soon destroy special education/speech-language records of former students who have been out of school for at least five (5) years. Former students may contact Marj Markle at 263-2278 before September 24, 2012, if they wish to review the files or obtain copies of the information contained in them. The information to be destroyed shall not include data collected on a routine basis that is maintained on all school children (such as the student's name, address, telephone number, grade level completed and year completed).

Parents of students still in school but not in special education for at least five (5) years may also request that their children's records be destroyed. Parents of these students also have the right to inspect the special education records and obtain copies of the information contained in those records before they are destroyed.

Persons having questions about this process or those persons wishing to request that records be destroyed may contact Marj Markle at 263-2278 for assistance.
