“Directory information” is disclosed without prior written consent, except when the request is for a profit-making plan or activity.

Administrative regulations set forth a procedure for annual notification to parents and eligible students of the District’s definition of directory information.  Parents or eligible students have two weeks from the start of the school year or their enrollment in which to advise the District in accordance with such regulations of any or all items which they refuse to permit the release of directory information about that student.

This form applies to the current school year only and must be completed annually.
