According to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, who is not permitted to review a student's record?

Teachers
Parents
School administrators
Law enforcement officials

The correct answer is: Law enforcement officials

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974 establishes specific rights for parents and eligible students (those who are 18 years or older) regarding access to educational records. Under FERPA, generally, parents and school administrators have the right to access a student's educational records. Teachers also typically have access for legitimate educational interests. Law enforcement officials, on the other hand, do not have unrestricted access to educational records unless explicitly allowed by law or under specific circumstances. FERPA restricts access to educational records to protect the privacy of students, thereby preventing unauthorized individuals, including law enforcement, from reviewing student records without consent or a legitimate educational purpose. This ensures that students' private information is safeguarded adequately.
