At any time, a parent(s) can notify the teacher if they wish to access their child’s personal information, and if necessary they can request that the data be deleted or no longer used by the School/District for the activities.

In addition, parent(s) can agree to the collection of their child’s information and refuse to have it shared with third parties. Parent(s) may reach out to their child’s teacher to exercise their rights in reference to the child’s data.

13. The Children’s Internet Protection Act

The Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) is a federal law enacted by Congress in December 2000 to address concerns about access to offensive content over the internet on school and library computers. CIPA imposes certain types of requirements on any school or library that receives funding support for internet access or internal connections from the “E-rate” program —a program that makes certain technology more affordable for eligible schools and libraries. Our programs do not provide links to external resources or chat rooms, and do not contain any offensive or inappropriate material. If you would like more information about CIPA, please go to https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/childrens-internet-protection-act.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. The law applies to all schools that receive funds under an applicable program of the U.S. Department of Education. If you would like more information about FERPA, please go to http://www.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/fpco/ferpa/index.html.
