Get More Information on FERPA
Counselors sometimes ask questions about the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), the federal law that protects the privacy of students' education records. The Department of Education has developed a series of easy-to-read brochures addressing this issue, and ASCA is pleased to provide these downloadable brochure files to its members. Brochures are available for elementary/secondary schools, colleges and one to distribute to parents.
The FERPA brochures for school officials also include contact information for obtaining additional guidance and assistance.
