Custodial Arrangements

If a non-custodial parent is not allowed to check out and/or speak to a child, the school office must be informed. Do not assume that we know this, and that our records contain this type of information, or that if they do, all adults concerned have reviewed the information with the child. This type of information is best delivered in person to the Administration, who will, in turn, inform the SHS faculty and staff. This should be done at the beginning of each school year.
 
The school recognizes that non-custodial parents have rights, and it abides by the provisions of the Buckley Amendment with respect to their rights. Sacred Heart will provide the non-custodial parent with access to the academic records and other school-related information about his/her child. However, if the parent who has custody of the child does not want the school to provide this information, he/she must provide the school with a court order specifying that there is to be no information given.
