Well, the LTSID has demonstrated again, that they are incapable of maintaining student confidentiality.

There are some some requirements imposed on the district by their their own written policies as well as applicable state and federal law. But it would appear that these legal requirements don’t apply to the LTISD.

The TEA letter of finding says among other things:

“Based on the LEA’s response, the Agency concludes that the LEA did not ensure that student’s personally identifiable information was protected at the disclosure stage in accordance with required procedures.”

Read the FERPA letter from which the TEA response was based.

These are a few reminders of the LTISD’s prior documented violations:

‘Did you know what a recent LTISD purchased report says about the district?’

‘Did she or didn’t she? She did! Did you know that Susan Tolles is the ONLY Board member to take confidentiality training and sign an oath of confidentiality?’

‘Did you know that the attorneys for the LTISD sent out unredacted information, again?’

‘Did she or didn’t she?’

‘Did you know that the district is supposed to remove any offensive, confidential, or proprietary information from computers before assigning them to students?’

‘Did you know that the LTISD cannot maintain custody of confidential records?’

‘Did you know that the LTISD was found to have violated student confidentiality?’

When will the LTISD follow their own written policies, state and federal laws?
