Faxing to Cranston Public Schools — FAQ
FERPA, not HIPAA, is the law that governs a student's file at Cranston Public Schools. Even immunization and health records the nurse keeps are treated as education records under FERPA once a school holds them. Either way, treat the documents as sensitive and confirm the receiving office before you fax.

Include the identifiers staff use to match a file: full name, date of birth, and grade. On the cover sheet, name the student records office or the receiving school so it lands with the right team.
