Directions and Information for Leon County Schools Release of Information Form
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) protects the accuracy and privacy of the educational
records of students and affords parents and eligible students (18 years of age and older) certain rights with
respect to student records.
The right most closely associated with the Leon County Schools Release of Student Information form is the right
of parents and eligible students to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained the
records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.
Parents or eligible students that sign this form are consenting to release of educational records for a period of
one year from the date of signing.
Parents have a right to revoke this release at any time by making a verbal or written request to the school
district. A verbal request to the school district’s court liaison during a court proceeding is acceptable when
documenting in writing by the court liaison.
This form must provide choices to parents or eligible students relative to the educational records that are
released. At no time should an individual requesting release of records through use of this form preselect
choices. The parent must choose the records for release.
Only a parent, guardian, eligible student, individuals authorized by the court to make decisions on the student’s
behalf, are permitted to sign this form.
All information requested on the form must be entered for the form to be valid.
FERPA does permits disclosure without consent pursuant to a court order or subpoena and to school officials
with legitimate educational interests. However, the school district is required to provide notice to parents and
eligible students before records are released in response to a court order or subpoena, unless law prohibits
notice, to permit time for the parent or eligible student to contact the requesting agency.
Information protected under FERPA is the information that is contained in student education records. This
release pertains only to release of such information.
Please carefully read the directions before completing this form.
