Parent access to report cards for current students who are 18

@Bernadette Shilliam We haven't taken any specific action on this yet. Our enrollment contract covers permissions while they are minors, and I suppose we have “assumed ongoing permission” to share from the student once they turn 18. We do apply the age in some environments; students can give themselves their own permission to leave campus, for example, once they turn 18, even if the parent had previously not given permission. But we have let the issue sit with ongoing access to records unless a student specifically wishes to cut access - a situation we have not yet encountered. Perhaps other schools have had that come up, and then I assume we'd have to remove the “Parent Access” portion of the relationship setup. (NB: we aren't covered by FERPA since we don't accept federal funding - this would be different in FERPA schools)

@Bernadette Shilliam We have a school form that all of our seniors get as part of the back to school forms that need to be submitted. This form grants the school the right to share records with their parents.

@David Gillespie We have not had that happen yet.
