The Department of Education has released a new brochure that provides guidance on the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) in an effort to help schools better balance students’ privacy rights with safety concerns – both at the K-12 and higher education levels.

It can be found at the following web address dedicated to the topic of safe schools and FERAP: www.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/fpco/ferpa/safeschools/.
