Student records contain scholastic records, directory information, and the student’s permanent health records.  When a student is transferring to another school, a copy of the student’s transcripts will be sent upon request by the new school. This request will be made to St. Patrick's School, in writing by the new school, and should be signed by the parent or guardian of the child. Transcripts will be mailed.  Transcripts (in order to be official) will not be hand carried by the parent.

 St. Patrick's will not release a transcript, records or personally identifiable information to persons or agencies (other than schools) without parental permission.

The school will, and must, comply with a court order to release information concerning a student.  However, if it is lawfully possible within the requirements of the judicial order, parents will be notified in advance of compliance.

Access to Student Records

The student’s parents or legal guardians have the right to inspect their entire child’s/children’s records in the presence of the principal or his/her designee.  However, behavioral records (e.g. counselor’s reports) shall be inspected only in the presence of a person qualified to interpret the records.
