Are the parent's of a child entitled, by law, to gain any information they require about their child and the environment their child is in (as long as that information doesn't involve another student, b/c it would break the other childs right for privacy)? I had a questionnaire I asked for the teachers and principal to fill out so I can better understand the structure of their school, the environment my child is in, and how my child responds to different situations in that environment. Is it legal for the principal to just decide for the teachers to not give me that information? I read some of the laws, and it sounded like I was entitled to the information I desire to have.... anyone know this one??? =) Thank you!
What is the law in Indiana on a parent receiving information???
the principal has the final decision...i am up in fishers and we had something very similar happen a few years ago...you might have to take this to the school board...however, i am not sure that your efforts will make any difference
Reply:dont give up. sit down with the principal and ask all the queations u want. try the pta also.
Reply:Not sure on this one. I would think that they would be more than willing to give up information on your child's school environment because you will hear from your child what happens and how they're responding. To know this stuff in advance or to know what your chld is not telling you would help both you and the school. Take it to the school board. You're going to find out anyways, why not give it up now before it causes problems?
Reply:I work in fort wayne and you can request and information and long as you are the legal guardian. You can also request for a tour of the school and to sit in on some of your child's classes to better understand what there day is like. If you child receives special service (esl, special ed) you are sup post to get meeting called IEP's to come up in ideas to better suite your child educationally. I hope this helps
