Education Records

Education records are official documents or files maintained by educational institutions that contain information about a student's academic progress, achievements, enrollment, attendance, and personal details. These records may include transcripts, report cards, attendance logs, and other related documents. They are used to track a student's educational history and are protected by privacy laws, meaning only authorized individuals can access them. Education records help ensure accurate record-keeping for academic decisions, transfer, and future opportunities, while also safeguarding students’ personal information from unauthorized disclosure.
