RESPECT FOR ALL

It is the policy of PS 131 and the Department of Education (DOE) to maintain a safe and supportive learning environment that is free from harassment, intimidation and/or bullying and from discrimination on account of actual or perceived race, color, citizenship/immigration status, religion, creed, national origin, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation or weight. For more information, you may contact the PS 131 Respect For All (RFA) Liaison, Ms. Corrine Tully.

The DOE takes the confidentiality of information about students very seriously. There are several federal and state laws, such as the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and New York State Education Law 2-d, and local regulations, such as Chancellor’s Regulation A-820, Learn More that protect students’ “personally identifiable information” (PII). These laws also place responsibilities on the DOE and outside parties that are given access to children’s PII, including the requirement for the DOE and schools to provide families with the following annual notices:

Annual FERPA Notification Learn More (scroll to the bottom of the page for parent letter and translations); and

Parent Bill of Rights for Data Privacy and Security. Learn More
