PPRA

PPRA, or the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment, is a law that safeguards students’ privacy rights in schools. It requires schools to obtain parental consent before conducting certain activities, such as surveys or evaluations that collect personal information, especially on sensitive topics like health, political beliefs, or religion. The law ensures that parents are informed and can choose whether their children participate, promoting transparency and respecting student privacy. Overall, PPRA helps protect students from unwarranted or invasive assessments, fostering a safe and respectful educational environment.
