Tuesday, January 4, 2011 Pass It On Education Tools: Are You In Compliance With Federal Law?The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and the related Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA) are two laws that "seek to ensure student and parental rights in education." Every educator has heard of them...but how many are truly familiar with what they say? Are you, as an educator and school, in compliance? Do you know enough about what is in them to know? If not, here is an excellent resource! The U.S. Department Education at Ed.gov has a page dedicated to the Family Policy Compliance Office (FPCO). This page has numerous rich resources for getting to really know what is in FERPA and PPRA.
