Summary

The bill obligates K‑12 districts and colleges to offer a secure online system for students to give informed consent before their educational records are disclosed. It defines what counts as student data, limits how consent can be restricted, requires a parent’s consent for minors, and creates a private right for students to sue third parties that violate the rules. The goal is to improve privacy and transparency for student information.
