Lege Trend: Curtail Release of Any and All Student Data to 3rd parties. Bonjour, education vendors.

What happened to spark stronger student data privacy protections? A court allowed for the release of student data to a group of parents who are fighting a court battle over the quality of education for disabled students.

What data do legislators want to prevent schools from releasing?

  • student social security numbers
  • medical histories
  • mental health assessments
  • student disciplinary records

​What is the nobel purpose of the legislative action? Schools collect data that is neither required by law nor required for public education purposes
