Lower Township - Parents, the amount of data being collected on your children is astonishing. Have you thought about who has access to all the forms you fill out for your child's school? Under the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), medical and counseling records that are included in your child’s education records are unprotected by Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA), passed by Congress in 1996. Very sensitive mental and physical health information can be shared outside of the school without parental consent. Join the Parent Coalition for Student Privacy now.
