Student Data Privacy

Bayfield School District 10Jt-R

 

Bayfield School District 10Jt-R holds data and security in high regard and takes action to ensure that our students' data is handled securely in compliance with the Colorado Student Data Transparency and Security Act (HB 16-1423) and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).

 

Parents and guardians want assurances that personal information and data about their children are secure and protected by our school district. These questions are rising as we use the internet, mobile apps, cloud computing, online learning and new technologies to deliver exciting new education services.


At Bayfield School District, we want to be clear about collected student data, and how it is used. We take the obligation of protecting student information seriously and want to be transparent about student information collected and how it is used. Part of the district's work in this area has included bringing our data practices into compliance with the Colorado Student Transparency and Security Act.

 

Bayfield School District collects data for various reasons that support staff, students and parents. Personally identifiable data is protected as required by State and Federal law. Bayfield School District's student data system is PowerSchool. Its data dictionary can be found here.
