What this law does
An education entity and an employee, student aide, volunteer, third party contractor, or other agent of an education entity must protect the privacy of a student, the student's parents, and the student's family through compliance with the protections for family and student privacy under the Student Privacy part, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act and related federal provisions, in the administration and operation of all public school programs, regardless of the source of funding.
For the section, an education entity is the state board, a local school board or charter school governing board, a school district, a public school, or the Utah Schools for the Deaf and the Blind. A local school board or charter school governing board must enact policies governing the protection of family and student privacy as the part requires.
