2466  PUBLIC LABELING OF EDUCATIONALLY HANDICAPPED PUPILS

 

The Board of Education guarantees the privacy provided by law that no educationally handicapped pupil shall be labeled publicly.  Therefore, any reference to an educationally handicapped pupil brought to the attention of the Board and/or any other potential public reference to an educationally handicapped pupil will be only by use of the pupil's initials and never by name.

 

Self-contained special education classes shall be referred to publicly by the name of the teacher.  This applies to schedules, class lists, transportation lists, public address announcements, and any other form of communication that has any potential for any exposure other than for the use by appropriately authorized school staff.

 

All pupil records shall be maintained strictly in accordance with N.J.A.C. 6:3-6.1 et seq.
