Faxing to Rockford Public Schools — FAQ
A student's education records at Rockford Public Schools are governed by FERPA, not HIPAA. Health information a school maintains for a student falls under FERPA, since the school is not a HIPAA-covered entity for those records. In practice that means a parent or guardian authorization governs releasing the records.
No. Rockford Public Schools runs many schools, so an individual school and the student records office do not share a number. As a suburban school district, it splits incoming faxes across the student records office, the departments, and the schools. Confirm the correct line for the school or office you are reaching, and check it still accepts fax. Sending to the wrong school only delays the request.
Include the identifiers staff use to match a file: full name, date of birth, and grade. State the specific Rockford Public Schools school or office the fax is for on the cover sheet. Include a signed parent or guardian authorization when the request is for records that are not your own child's. Check the details once before you send so nothing bounces back.
