OOLOGAH-TALALA PUBLIC SCHOOLS

STUDENT RECRUITMENT ACCESS TO STUDENTS AND DIRECTORY INFORMATION

The Oologah-Talala Public School District may disclose any of the items listed as directory information without prior written consent, unless notified in writing to the contrary. The parent, legal guardian of the student, or the student age 18 or over may also provide written notification to the school administration requesting directory information not be released to military service recruiters. (See policy FL-R for listing of directory information items.)

Subject to the provisions of state and federal laws, this district shall provide the same directory information and on-campus recruiting opportunities to representatives of the armed forces of the United States of America and state armed services as are offered to nonmilitary recruiters, recruiters for commercial concerns, and recruiters representing institutions of higher education.

The school administrator may make the determination of when the recruitment meetings are to take place and reserves the right to deny such meeting where the holding of such meeting will materially and substantially interfere with the proper and orderly operation of the school. Organizations wishing to recruit at the high school must make arrangements with the principal or designee who will determine the schedule for the recruitment meeting. Scheduled visits by recruiters will be made known to the student body. On-campus follow-up meetings with individual students will be permitted only upon the request of the student(s) and with the approval of the building principal or designee.

Any person or organization denied the rights accorded under this policy shall have the right to request a review of the decision by the board of education by filing a written request with the superintendent of schools.

This district will notify parents of the types of student directory information released. The notice will include:

1. An explanation of the parent’s right to request that information not be disclosed without prior written consent;

2. Notice that the school routinely discloses names, addresses, and telephone numbers to military recruiters upon request, subject to a parent’s request not to disclose such information without written consent; and

3. Notification on how the parent may opt out of the public, nonconsensual disclosure of directory information and the method and timeline within which to do so.

The notice will be provided to parents on an annual basis.
