Family Education Rights & Privacy Act (FERPA)

Annual Notification of Rights The Family Right & Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (otherwise known as FERPA) sets forth requirements regarding the privacy of student records. FERPA governs release of records maintained by a school district as well as access to those records. This notice explains the rights of parents with respect to student educational records, and outlines the District's procedures to comply with FERPA. Parents have the right to:

1. Inspect and review the student's educational records. Requests to inspect records should be directed to a school administrator.

2. Seek amendment of the student's educational records that the parent believes to be inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student's privacy rights. Requests to amend records should be directed to a school administrator.

3. Consent to disclosures to personally identifiable information contained in student education records, except to the extent that FERPA and state law authorize such disclosures without consent.

The District maintains the right to disclose educational records to other school officials, including teachers, within the school district who have been determined to have legitimate educational interests in the records. School officials are certified staff and have a legitimate educational interest if the record information sought will, if disclosed, assist the official in providing education or other related services to the student.

4. File a complaint with the Family Policy Compliance Office of the United States Department of Education alleging that the District is not in compliance with FERPA requirements. The address of this office is: Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20202-4605.

Asbestos Hazard Emergency Act

As a result of recent federal legislation (Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act - AHERA), all schools are required to complete a stringent inspection for asbestos and to develop a plan of management for all asbestos-containing building materials. The Trevor-Wilmot Consolidated Grade School District has a goal to be in full compliance with this law. As a matter of policy, the District shall continue to maintain a safe and healthful environment for our community's children and youth and employees.

In keeping with this legislation, all buildings owned by the Trevor-Wilmot Consolidated Grade School District were inspected by EPA accredited inspectors and samples were analyzed by an independent laboratory. Based on the inspection, the school prepared and the state approved a comprehensive management plan for safe and responsible handling of the asbestos located within its buildings.

Furthermore, the Trevor-Wilmot Consolidated Grade School District has completed its 3-Year Re-inspection required by AHERA. Federal law requires a periodic walk-through every six months of each area containing asbestos. In addition, the law requires all building to be re-inspected three years after a management plan is in effect. MacNeil Environmental, Inc. accomplishes this under contract with the District.

Short-term workers (outside contractors, etc.) must be provided information regarding the location of asbestos in which they may come into contact. All short-term workers shall contain the head custodian before commencing work to receive this information.

The Trevor-Wilmot Consolidated Grade School District has a list of the location(s), type(s) of asbestos containing materials found in that school building and a description and time-table for their proper management. A copy of the Asbestos Management Plan is available for review in the school office. Questions related to the plan should be directed to Nathaniel McMullin, Account Manager, MacNeil Environmental, Inc., Burnsville, Minnesota at 800-232-5209, (262) or by containing the Trevor Grade School District at 262-862-2356.
