NOTICE OF DIRECTORY INFORMATION
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), a Federal law, requires that Williston School District, with
certain exceptions, obtain your written consent prior to the disclosure of personally identifiable information from
your child's education records. However, Williston School District may disclose appropriately designated "directory
information" without written consent, unless you have advised the District to the contrary in accordance with district
procedures.
The primary purpose of directory information is to allow the Williston School District to include this type of
information from your child's education records in certain school publications. Examples include:

2.
The annual yearbook;
3.
Honor roll or other recognition lists;
4.
Graduation programs; and
5.
Sports activity sheets, such as for wrestling, showing weight and height of team members.
Directory information, which is information that is generally not considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if
released, can also be disclosed to outside organizations without a parent's prior written consent. Outside
organizations include, but are not limited to, companies that manufacture class rings or publish yearbooks. In
addition, two federal laws require school districts receiving assistance under the Elementary and Secondary
Education Act of 1965 (ESEA) to provide military recruiters, upon request, with three directory information
categories--names, addresses and telephone listings--unless parents have advised the school district that they do
not want their student's information disclosed without their prior written consent.
If you do not want Williston School District to disclose directory information from your child's education records
without your prior written consent, you must notify the District in writing within ten calendar days of enrollment.
Williston School District has designated the following information as directory information:
1.
Date and place of birth
