Annual FERPA Notice

FERPA is an acronym for the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, also known as the Buckley Amendment. This federal enactment establishes the legal parameters governing access to and release of student educational records. One of the six basic requirements is that students be annually notified of their FERPA rights.
