  • POLICE INTERVIEWS & ARRESTS

  • RESTITUTION FOR VANDALISM

Hawaii has established and supports a statewide system of public education. The compulsory nature of school attendance ensures that a student shall have the opportunity for an education.

OPT OUT FORM

The Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 (ESSA) requires school districts to release the names, addresses, and telephone listings (including unlisted numbers) of secondary school students to military recruiters upon their request unless the parent/legal guardian of a student or an eligible student (18 years or older) requests that the student’s contact information not be released without the prior written consent of the eligible student or parent/legal guardian. If this form is completed, signed, and returned to the student’s school, the school and school district shall not release the student’s name, address, and telephone listing to military recruiters without prior written consent of the eligible student or the parent/legal guardian. To initiate the “opt out” request, this form should be completed and signed by EITHER the student’s parent/legal guardian OR the eligible student.

Student Privacy

Student Privacy

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)
is a federal law that gives parents certain protections with regard to their children’s
education records, such as:
​

  • report cards

  • transcripts

  • disciplinary records

  • contact and family information,

  • and class schedules​

​​As a parent, you have the right to review your child’s education records and to request changes under limited circumstances.

​Hawaii public schools are required to notify parents of their rights​ under FERPA.
Here is a brief description of FERPA rights:​

The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student's education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. One exception that permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests.

The right to request the amendment of the student's education records that the parent, guardian, or eligible student believe are inaccurate or misleading.

The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the school to comply with the requirements of FERPA.

The right to inspect and review the student's education records within 45 days of the request
