Permanent Records & Transfer of Records

A permanent record is set up for each student in the school system. This record begins when the student starts school and is kept current on the student until he/she finishes school. The permanent record follows the student wherever he/she goes. Permanent records are available for review by parents upon request. A student's educational record will be forwarded to a requesting school in which the student enrolls upon the school's request for the record. Permanent and cumulative records for individual students are collected, maintained, and disseminated in compliance with MS Codes § 37-3-49, § 37-15-1 through 37-15-3, and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. See OSSD BOT Policy JR - Student Records.
