Records and transcript requests at NOLA Public Schools

Faxing to NOLA Public Schools — FAQ
Faxes reach NOLA Public Schools whenever you send, but when they are handled varies by office. The records and enrollment offices work weekday business hours. A request sent overnight is picked up the next business day, and processing slows during back-to-school registration. Flag anything deadline-sensitive on the cover sheet so it is not treated as routine.
Some offices at NOLA Public Schools take fax; others have moved online. Forms are frequently collected through a district app such as ParentSquare now. So confirm the office still accepts fax before you send, and use its portal when that is what it asks for. A two-minute check of the registration page saves a misrouted or rejected document.
The right number depends on whether the school or the district office should receive the document. Use NOLA Public Schools' records-request instructions, which name where to send documents today. Confirming the line first is a two-minute step that prevents a misrouted document. The school or office that receives the fax is the authority on its own number.
FERPA, not HIPAA, is the law that governs a student's file at NOLA Public Schools. The school nurse's health file is part of the education record under FERPA. In practice that means a parent or guardian authorization governs releasing the records.
Both the school and NOLA Public Schools' central office may hold pieces of the file. Enrollment and school-assignment documents usually go to the central registration office. Records already tied to a school often go to that school's office instead. Confirm the current fax with NOLA Public Schools before you send, and check the office still accepts it. The result is a clean hand-off to the right office at NOLA Public Schools.
