FAMILY RIGHTS & LEGAL NOTICES 

Family Rights and Privacy Act 

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ("FERPA") affords 

parents and students over 18 years of age ("eligible students") certain rights 

with respect to the student's education records. These rights are: 

1) The right to inspect and review the student's education records 

within 45 days of the day the District receives a request for access. Parents 

or eligible students should submit to the building principal a written request 

that identifies the record(s) they wish to inspect. The District official will 

make arrangements for access and notify the parent or eligible student of the 

time and place where the records may be inspected; 

2) The right to request the amendment of the student’s education 

records that the parent or eligible student believes is inaccurate or 

misleading or otherwise in violation of FERPA. Parents or eligible students 

who wish to amend a record should write the building principal, clearly 

identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it should 

be changed. If the District decides not to amend the record as requested by 

the parent or eligible student, the District will notify the parent or eligible 

student of the decision and advise them of their right to a hearing regarding 

the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing 

procedures will be provided to the parent or eligible student when notified of 

the right to a hearing; 

3) 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, which 

permits disclosure without consent, is disclosure to School officials with 

legitimate educational interests. A "School official" is a person employed by 

the District as an administrator, supervisor, instructor (including substitutes), 

or support staff member (including health or medical staff and law 

enforcement unit personnel); a person serving on the School Board; a person 

or company with whom the District has contracted as its agent to provide a 

service instead of using its own employees or officials (such as an attorney, 

auditor, insurance investigator or company, medical consultant or therapist); 

a parent or student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or 

grievance committee, or assisting another School official in performing his 

or her tasks; an individual(s) and organization(s) which the District 

requests to make a review of the possible appropriateness of providing 

special education placement, program or services to a student on behalf of 

the District including, but not limited to, BOCES (Board of Cooperative 

Educational Services), other school districts, approved private schools, and 

providers of services such as speech therapy, physical therapy, occupational 

therapy, music therapy, counseling, autism services, special transportation, 

etc. An individual(s) and/or organization(s) will be considered a School 

official regardless of whether the District compensates them for their 

services. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official 

needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional 

responsibility including, but not limited to, reviewing or recommending 

services, program, or placement. 

Upon request, the District discloses education records without consent 

to officials of another District in which a student seeks or intends to enroll or 

is already enrolled if the disclosure is for purposes related to the student’s 

enrollment or transfer; 

4) The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education 

concerning alleged failures by the District to comply with the requirements 

of FERPA. The name and address of the office that administers FERPA are: 

Family Policy Compliance Office; U.S. Department of Education; 400 

Maryland Avenue, SW; Washington, DC 20202-4605 

Release of Directory Information 

Under the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act, certain 

information known as “Directory Information” may be released without 

prior written consent. Directory information is identified as 

information that would not generally be considered harmful or an 

invasion of privacy if disclosed. Directory information includes a 

student’s name, names of parents or legal guardians, grade designation, 

participation in extracurricular activities, achievements, awards and 

honors, pictures (still or moving), and weight, height and date of birth 

of members of an athletic team or other school-sponsored activity. 

If you wish to refuse permission for the release of any or all 

directory information, you must advise the Superintendent of Schools 

or building principal in writing by September 30, 2011. 

Title IX Public Notice (Sex Discrimination) 

In compliance with Title IX of the Educational Amendment 

of 1972, the Lake Shore Central School District provides equal 

access to all its educational programs and activities regardless of 

sex, race, color, national origin, or disability. No student will be 

excluded on such basis from participating in or having access to 

any course offerings, student athletics, counseling services, 

extracurricular activities, or other school resources. The District’s 

designated compliance officers who coordinate the 

nondiscrimination requirements of Title IX are: Daniel Pacos, 

Assistant Superintendent for Administration & Finance, 926-2221; 

and Paula Eastman, J. T. Waugh Elementary Principal, 926-2371. 

Section 504 Public Notice (Disability) 

In compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 

1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Lake 

Shore Central School District does not discriminate on the basis of 

disability. No qualified student with a disability shall, on the basis 

of that disability, be denied access to any of the District’s 

educational programs or activities. The District’s designated 

compliance officer who coordinates the nondiscrimination 

requirements of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 is 

the Superintendent of Schools, 926-2201. 

Child Find 

Pursuant to Federal and State Law of the Individuals with 

Disabilities Education Act and Article 89 of the New York State 

Education Law, the Lake Shore Central School District seeks to 

locate, identify, evaluate, and maintain information about all 

children with disabilities residing within the district, including 

those attending private schools. Parents or legal guardians who 

believe their child has a handicapping condition and may be in 

need of special services should contact Mary Steenberg, Director 

of Special Education, at 926-2230. 

Equal Opportunity 

The Lake Shore Central School District, its officers and 

employees shall not discriminate against any student, employee or 

applicant on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, national 

origin, political affiliation, gender, sexual orientation, age, martial 

status, veteran status, or disability. It is the policy of the Board of 

Education to comply with the regulations listed in Title IX of the 

1972 Educational Requirements and Section 504 of the 

Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Any member of the Lake Shore 

Central School District staff or any pupil or parent believing 

discrimination based on race, color, creed, religion, national origin, 

political affiliation, gender, sexual orientation, age, martial status, 

veteran status, or disability should address questions and 

complaints to the District Compliance Offices at 959 Beach Road, 

Angola, NY 14006: Daniel Pacos, Assistant Superintendent of 

Administration & Finance, 926-2221; and Paula Eastman, J. T. 

Waugh Elementary Principal, 926-2371. 

Sexual Harassment 

The District recognizes the responsibility to provide an 

environment for students and staff that is free of sexual harassment 

and intimidation. The District policies on sexual harassment are 

available upon request to all employees and students. A districtwide 

effort to explain to students what sexual harassment is and 

what behavior is unacceptable has been integrated into the 

curriculum in accordance with our character education curriculum. 

Information Regarding Teacher Qualifications 

In accordance with the federal No Child Left Behind Act of 

2001, parents have the right to request information regarding the 

professional qualifications of their child’s classroom teachers. 

Specifically, they have the right to request the following 

information concerning the child’s teachers: 

• Whether the teacher has met New York State qualifications and 

licensing criteria for the grade levels and subject areas he or she 

teachers; 

• Whether the teacher is teaching under emergency or other 

provisional status under which state qualification or licensing 

criteria have been waived; 

• The teacher’s college major; whether the teacher has any 

advanced degrees and, if so, the subject of those degrees; and 

• If your child receives services from any instructional assistants 

or similar paraprofessionals, the qualifications for those 

individuals. 

Written requests to receive any of the aforementioned 

information may be directed to: 

James E. Przepasniak, Superintendent of Schools
