Response Notes
Per our conversations regarding your desire to use student-level data at an analytical level for research purposes – which would otherwise not be releasable as it reveals individual student records which are exempt under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), which restricts access to student records, and MPIA GP § 4-313, which prevents disclosure of school district records pertaining to individual students – please contact Mary Levinsohn-Klyap in our Shared Accountability Office at Mary_Levinsohn-Klyap@hcpss.org. For reference, research involving students and employees is addressed under HCPSS Policy 3030.
