What this law does
A student owns the student's personally identifiable student data. An education entity must allow the student's parent, the student, and in the absence of a parent an individual acting as a parent to access the student's student data that the entity maintains. An education entity must, in accordance with state board rule, expunge a student's student data that it stores.
State board rules must set the timeline and process for a prior student or the parent of a prior student to request that an education entity expunge all of the prior student's student data.
