MH School District to destroy special education records in mid-September

wireready_08-14-2017-10-26-02_09524_mhpublicschoolslogo

The Mountain Home School District will destroy all outdated special education records prior to June 2011. Records not requested by anyone who was served in special education programs or their parents or guardians will be destroyed on September 15th.

The district maintains the records for six years after a student has graduated, dropped or moved from the district. State and federal guidelines require the records to be destroyed six years after a student no longer receives special education services or records are no longer needed to provide services.

All parties 18-and-older who were served in special education programs or parents and guardians of those students have the right to review and request the records before they’re destroyed. The records are available at the Mountain Home Special Education Office on South Main Street. For more information, contact Cassy Barnhill at 870-425-1247.
