Who enforces it
Enforcement body
Idaho State Board of Education and State Department of Education, either of which may bring a civil enforcement action under section 33-133 of the Idaho Code.
What this law does
Unless the State Board of Education approves otherwise, student data deemed confidential under the Act may not be transferred to a federal, state or local agency or other organization or entity outside the state of Idaho.
The exceptions cover a student who transfers out of state or a school or district seeking help locating an out-of-state transfer, a student who leaves the state to attend an out-of-state institution of higher education or training program, a student who voluntarily participates in a program for which the transfer is a condition of participation, sharing by the Board or Department with a vendor to the extent necessary under a contract, a written agreement between two school districts for a student moving to the nearest appropriate district in a neighboring state, and a student classified as migrant for federal reporting.
