Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois School Student Records Act. Provides that the definition of "School Student Record" includes the following information used by or assigned to an individual student: (i) any unique identification number; (ii) any unique user name, other than the student's name itself; and (iii) any other unique information used to identify an individual student. Provides that school student records or information contained in the records may be released, transferred, disclosed, or otherwise disseminated to any person or entity (instead of to any person) for the purpose of research, statistical reporting, planning, audit, or evaluation (instead of for the purpose of research, statistical reporting, or planning). Adds as a condition that the parent or eligible student (defined as a student who has reached 18 years of age) provide prior, specific, dated, written consent designating the person to whom the records may be released and, at the time any such consent is requested or obtained, the parent or eligible student is first advised in writing of the specific purpose of the release, transfer, disclosure, or dissemination and has the right to inspect and copy such records, to challenge their contents, and to limit any such consent to designated records or designated portions of the information contained in the records. Provides that a separate, prior, specific, dated, written consent shall be required from the parent or eligible student for each release, transfer, disclosure, or dissemination of school student records or information.
