FERPA GUIDELINES. FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) is a federal law that protects the privacy of student educational records. Even though dual enrollment school students may be considered “dependent minors”, under (FERPA) they have rights to privacy in all matters relating to their collegiate educational record. Generally, LSSC, including the faculty members, will not release information relating to protected student information to non-LSSC officials without the student’s written consent. The practice of not releasing information extends to the release of information to parents and guardians. Information may not be released to parents or guardians unless the student has signed the LSSC FERPA waiver form. The LSSC FERPA waiver form, “Authorization for Release of Student Information” is available at: New Student Orientation sessions, on the LSSC website, and at the LSSC Admissions and Records Office/Enrollment Services. Completed forms must be submitted in person by the student with a photo ID to the LSSC Admissions and Records Office/Enrollment Services.
