The purpose of the Parents’ Bill of Rights is to inform parents (which also include legal guardians
or persons in parental relation to a student, but generally not the parents of a student who is
age eighteen or over) of the legal requirements regarding privacy, security and use of student
data. In addition to the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), Education
Law §2-d provides important new protections for student data, and new remedies for breaches of
the responsibility to maintain the security and confidentiality of such data.
