Public School Reporting of Student Directory Information

Students of Camdenton R-III School District were concerned that results of an upcoming Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) testing and directory information would be provided to the military upon submission of the tests.

Some students of Camdenton R-III School District were concerned that results of an upcoming Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) testing and directory information would be provided to the military upon submission of the tests. On behalf of these students, Doty sent a letter Oct. 19, 2012, to Dr. Tim Hadfield reminding him of Camdenton R-III School District’s obligations under the No Child Left Behind Act and the Privacy Act and requested the following information:

* Which of the eight options Camdenton will select regarding reporting ASVAB results to recruiters and recruiter-student contacts

* If Camdenton will not select Option 8, whether it will submit a list of students who have opted out (or whose parents have opted them out) so the exam will be graded under the “split option” offered by The United States Military Entrance Processing Command

* Whether Camdenton R-III has met its obligations under No Child Left Behind Act to inform parents and students of their option to “opt-out” of the release of directory information, and

* Whether students will be required to provide their social security number to take the ASVAB exam
