Season Six Episode Four: Your Top FERPA Questions

June 30, 2022

What about parents who want to observe their children's in-person or virtual classes? Join Christina, Lisa, and Miriam as we discuss your top FERPA questions and consider how school districts across the country are addressing challenging situations that may implicate student privacy rights.
