Answer 11

Answer to Question 11:

The Correct Response is: No

First, your visual or aural observation of a student is not an “education record” – it has not been recorded.

Second, you have determined that there is an “articulable and significant threat to the health or safety of a student or other individual.”

However, time permitting, you should attempt to consult with Campus Police and in this case, Student Affairs, before contacting the parents or anyone who is not a school official with a legitimate educational interest.
