Hello Families,
Federal and state law requires the DOE and its schools to provide families with annual notices around the protection of student rights and privacy. Please see the documents attached and links below for more information.
- Annual PPRA Notification (nyc.gov)
- Annual FERPA Notification (nyc.gov)
- Parents' Bill of Rights for Data Privacy and Security (nyc.gov)
Also, New York City Public Schools (NYCPS) loves recognizing students’ achievements and celebrating their accomplishments. Sometimes, this involves sharing information about students, such as their names, image, grade level, and awards in school publications and publicly posted achievements. Under a federal law called the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), NYCPS is allowed to share certain information about your child, called “directory information,” unless you tell us not to.
What is Directory Information?
Directory information is information about your child that would not be considered harmful or cause an invasion of privacy if disclosed. Our school may share the following information about your child within the school community unless you tell us not to:
· Student’s name
· Age
· Grade level
· Schools attended and dates of enrollment
· Photograph
· Participation in school sports or activities
· Honors, awards, or other prizes
This is the only type of information our school is designating as directory information. We will only share this information within our community in school publications (such as the yearbook, school newspaper, and playbills) and to announce your child’s achievements (such as on the honor roll). Please fill out the Directory Information OPT OUT form below if you would like to keep this information private for any reason.
