Notice of Destruction of Special Education Records
In accordance with Public Law 105-17 and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act: the Brookings-Harbor School District will destroy special education records that are no longer needed for the provision of special education services. Specifically selected records of former special education students, those referred for evaluation or those who have exited the program (5 years ago) will be destroyed. The school corporation will maintain only directory information including the students name, last known address and phone number, classes attended, attendance record, grade completed and year completed. Records which will be destroyed include test protocols and written reports, individualized education plans, individualized transition plans, and other educational documents relevant to providing the student a free appropriate public education during the time the student attended school. Please note that some information to be destroyed may be needed by the student in order to substantiate claims for social security and other benefits. All former students who participated in special programs in the Brookings Harbor School District and meet the age criteria noted above or the legal guardians of former students who would like to retain these educational records should contact the office of Special Programs at 541-412-1488 prior to the five-year deadline.
