About this episode
FERPA, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, is a 1974 federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. It applies to all educational institutions that receive funding from the U.S. Department of Education. FERPA ensures students and parents have control over educational information while balancing the need for institutions to use records for legitimate purposes.
