Term: FERPA

Definition: FERPA stands for Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. It is a law that protects the privacy of students' educational records.

Example: Let's say you are a college student and you want to see your grades from last semester. FERPA gives you the right to access your own educational records, but it also protects your privacy by not allowing anyone else to see them without your permission.

Explanation: FERPA is important because it helps keep students' educational records private. This means that schools cannot share your grades, attendance records, or other personal information with anyone else without your consent. It also gives you the right to access your own records and make sure they are accurate. By protecting your privacy, FERPA helps ensure that your educational information is kept safe and secure.
