Your child's directory information will be released or their image and voice may be used in the media as follows, unless you select specific options during registration. Please read details below carefully to opt-out.

Directory Information
The District may disclose information that is generally not considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if the primary purpose is to allow the District to include this type of information in certain school publications, such as yearbooks, newsletters, playbills, team rosters, or honor rolls. Directory information includes the following:

name
address
telephone listing
email address

grade level
date and place of birth

The District will not disclose directory information unless the District or school will use the information in a publication, or a third party has requested the information for a reason that, in the judgment of the District, serves the student's best interests. For example, the District will comply with directory information requests from another school in which a student seeks to enroll, universities and colleges, law enforcement and Child Protective Services. The District will provide directory information for commercial purposes only if beneficial to students, such as yearbook or class ring sales.
